Prevalence of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Pediatric Patients on Maintenance Dialysis and After Kidney Transplantation: A NAPRTCS Study
05:00 PM - 07:00 PM
Kyle Merrill, MD

Kyle Merrill, MD

Kyle Merrill is currently a second-year Pediatric Nephrology Fellowship at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center. He completed his prior training including medical school and pediatrics residency at the University of Iowa. His academic interests include acute kidney injury, acute renal replacement therapy and kidney transplant. His research interests include cardiovascular changes on dialysis and post-kidney transplant as well as allosensitization of potential transplant recipients and predictors of delayed graft function post kidney transplant.

Biomarker Panels for Discriminating Risk of CKD Progression in Children
05:00 PM - 07:00 PM
Jason Henry Greenberg, MD

Jason Henry Greenberg, MD

Dr. Greenberg grew up in New York, before attending Cornell University to study Biological Engineering. He then attended medical school at the State University of New York at Brooklyn. He completed his residency in Pediatrics at New York University Medical Center. Dr. Greenberg completed his fellowship in Pediatric Nephrology at the Yale University School of Medicine. He also obtained a Masters degree from Yale in Health Sciences Research . Dr. Greenberg is now an Assistant Professor of Pediatrics in the Section of Nephrology at Yale University and a clinical investigator in the Clinical and Translational Research Accelerator (CTRA). His research focuses on improving risk prediction to assist with clinical decision making and inform clinical trials in children with kidney disease.

Brandon M. Lane, PhD

Brandon M. Lane, PhD

While pursing my undergraduate degree at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, I became enamored with genetic research through multiple research opportunities at the university, as well as summer research internships at Johns Hopkins Institute of Genetic Medicine. After receiving my PhD in Human and Molecular Genetics from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2012, I pursued gene therapy in the treatment of glaucoma at UNC Chapel Hill before joining the lab of Rasheed Gbadegesin at Duke University in 2015 as a postdoctoral associate. The focus of our research is identifying the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying pediatric kidney disease with the goal of improving patient diagnosis and progressing to a more personalized treatment approach.

Cross-Talk Between Neutrophils and Macrophages Dictates the Outcome of Acute Pyelonephritis
05:00 PM - 07:00 PM
Juan de Dios Ruiz-Rosado, PhD

Juan de Dios Ruiz-Rosado, PhD

My name is Juan de Dios Ruiz Rosado, I am a postdoctoral research scientist at the Abigail Wexner Research Institute, Nationwide Children’s Hospital (NCH). I am a proud member of the Nephrology and Urology Research Affinity Group (NURAG) at NCH. My research focuses on elucidating the functional roles of immune phagocytes in the development of kidney fibrosis and the consequent impairment of renal function during urinary tract infections (UTI). I am enthusiastic and committed to become an accomplished independent investigator, and develop a comprehensive understanding of the protective cellular mechanisms elicited during UTI. My overarching goal is to advance the delivery of more targeted interventions to control the development of adverse sequelae in children with UTI.

Meredith Posner Schuh, MD

Meredith Posner Schuh, MD

Meredith Posner Schuh, MD, is an Assistant Professor in the Division of Nephrology and Hypertension at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. Her research focuses on how prematurity can lead to low nephron endowment and increased risk for chronic kidney disease later in life, with a special interest in late-gestation kidney development.
