BENEFITS
Free subscription to the journal Nephrology, Dialysis, Transplantation (12 issues per year) + CKJ - Clinical Kidney Journal (6 issues per year).
Included in the payment of the "Full Fees" is a free print subscription to NDT and CKJ. Every month NDT, one of the world’s leading journals devoted to original clinical and laboratory research in nephrology, dialysis and transplantation, provides readers with the latest clinical research in the field to improve patient care and outcomes; every other month, CKJ provides readers with essential educational and training articles that really benefit clinical care. NDT’s Impact Factor of 3.306 (Thompson Reuters Journal Citation Reports, June 2010) makes NDT the leading European nephrology journal and a very valuable benefit of ERA-EDTA membership. The "NDT" monthly print issues, and the print issues of CKJ, are NOT sent to those members who pay the "Online", “Junior” and “Reduced” membership fees.
Free access to NDT (Nephrology, Dialysis, Transplantation) Online (including CKJ Online).

NDT Archive - EXCLUSIVE MEMBERSHIP BENEFIT
One important benefit of ERA-EDTA membership (except for those members who pay the “Reduced fee”) is that you are able to access the complete electronic archive of NDT, from Volume 1 issue 1 dating back to 1986 when it started publishing.
Whilst most NDT subscribers can access content back to 1996, content earlier than this is considered a valuable archive and requires a special subscription to access it – which all ERA-EDTA members have!
ERA-EDTA members have access to this valuable resource, which means that about a further 10,000 pages of high-quality research will be available to you.
