Translational Session

Prenatal and Postnatal Effects on the Kidneys: Mechanisms and Innovative Therapies

November 08, 2025 | 02:00 PM - 04:00 PM

Location: Room 371A, Convention Center

Session Description

This session addresses advances in the understanding of mechanisms of how intrauterine and postnatal exposures, including preterm birth, affect the kidneys. This includes research on the impact of neonatal interventions on kidney progenitor cell senescence. Precision medicine strategies to improve neonatal kidney health are highlighted.

Learning Objective(s)

• Explain how adverse intrauterine exposures affect developing kidneys
• Assess the impact of neonatal interventions on kidney progenitor cell senescence
• Describe precision medicine strategies to improve neonatal kidney health
• Explain how preterm birth affects the kidneys

Learning Pathway(s)

• Pediatric Nephrology
• AKI and Critical Care
