For the past few weeks, I have been spending my Wednesday mornings in nephrology outpatient clinic at unnamed academic medical center, in order to fulfill the 'longitudinal clinical experience' requirement of getting through medical school. Because of this exposure, I find myself more interested in renal pathology.
I stumbled upon a wonderful resource, the Washington University in St. Louis Nephrology Web Series, created by Timothy Yau, M.D. which is a YouTube series of webisodes that discuss aspects of physiology, history, and pathology related to the kidney. Many of them involve a renal pathologist and nephrology fellow collaboratively interpreting kidney biopsy images. While watching his videos, I came across an online textbook which helped me understand some of the finer points of renal physiology. Another for those interested in nephropathology is Arkana lab's Blog. Another site is NephSim, a website which is also mobile phone compatible. Also AJKD's cases.
Now that I am on the topic of youtube and pathology, I would like to list channels and videos that I personally have found helpful/entertaining.
pathCast - pathology experts from a variety of institutions
Cleveland Clinic Laboratories - Pathology Insights series
Jerad Gardner - dermato- and soft tissue pathologist involved in social media
Mount Sinai Department of Pathology - didactics that are streamed
Websites:
PathologyOutlines - outlines in bullet point form
Board Review Pathology - navigate by changing the last number (1 to 2648)
International Society of Urological Pathologists - access imagebase/cases with an account

Honorable mention:
Video
DermPro DermPath - compilation of derm spotters
UAMS Pathophysiology - from the very basic to beyond
Web Pathology - pictures with detailed explanations
