Basic/Clinical Science Session
Immune Cartography of AKI: Mapping Signals to Actionable Pathways
October 24, 2026 | 02:00 PM - 04:00 PM
Location: Room 203, Convention Center
Session Description
This session highlights recent advances in understanding how distinct immune-cell subsets sculpt the injured kidney microenvironment and the regulatory pathways that govern these responses. Drawing on cutting-edge spatiotemporal mapping of immune-cell states in healthy and diseased kidneys, the session explores how dynamic immune programs shape tissue remodeling and how unique immune signatures distinguish specific kidney pathologies.
Learning Objective(s)
- Describe the immune-cell activity that drives pathological remodeling of injured kidneys
- Identify novel immunomodulatory pathways
- Discuss how single-cell and spatial technologies are uncovering distinct immune subsets in AKI, enabling precision diagnostics and improved prediction of progression to CKD
Learning Pathway(s)
- AKI and Critical Care
