Basic/Clinical Science Session
New Paradigms in Proteinuric Kidney Diseases
November 08, 2025 | 02:00 PM - 04:00 PM
Location: General Assembly A, Convention Center
Session Description
This session explores the current state of research developments focused on glomerular cell function and organelle stress that exacerbates glomerular injury. Challenges in the field are discussed, including the need for development of glomerular cell-specific therapies and identification of biomarkers to guide personalized therapy for proteinuric kidney diseases.
