Kidney Precision Medicine Program at Yale AKI Site
Overview
In the hopes of discovering therapeutic targets for acute kidney injury, which currently has no specific therapy, the NIH/NIDDK has created the Kidney Precision Medicine Program consortium. As an AKI recruitment site in the consortium, Yale site investigators recruit participants with AKI and collect biospecimen, including kidney biopsy tissue.
Project funding
Funding for this project comes from the following grant:
UG3 DK114866 (NIH-NIDDK)
"AKI Matched Phenotype Linked Evaluation with Tissue (AMPLE-Tissue)"
