Celebrating #WorldKidneyDay with UKRO and Zhongwei Li’s lab USC Stem Cell and @KeckSchool_USC. Zhongwei Li and colleagues McMahon Lab, Nils Lindstrom and Janos Peti-Peterdi are progressing on generating a transplantable kidney from human stem cells to replace dialysis.

To democratize access to lab-grown organ-like structures known as organoids and other advanced stem cell and transcriptomic technologies, USC Stem Cell will launch the CIRM ASCEND Center. CIRM stemcell.keck.usc.edu/3-95-million-c…

Through their KidneyX prize, Dr. Nils Lindström Nils Lindstrom and his team at the University of Southern California are advancing the next generation of functional artificial kidneys using stem cells. Watch to learn more youtu.be/eoANNmUtrHs?si…

USC's Department of Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine (stemcell.keck.usc.edu) is recruiting outstanding tenured faculty in the broad areas of developmental and stem cell biology and regenerative medicine. To apply, visit usccareers.usc.edu/job/los-angele…

Super excited to share our new paper Unified Mouse and Human Kidney Single-Cell Expression Atlas Reveal Commonalities and Differences in Disease States by Jianfu Zhou journals.lww.com/jasn/abstract/…

Everyone speaks about AKI, few speak about AKD, but many pts develop AKD w/o AKI. AKD +/- AKI has important consequences on mortality and subsequent CKD.
Incidence and prognosis of AKI versus AKD among 71,041 inpatients academic.oup.com/ckj/article/do…

Important concepts because low nephron no is a 🔝RF for HTN, proteinuria of any cause, pre-eclampsia, DKD, progression of CKD, AKI/CKD transition etc etc.
Nephrons develop by log2 , so most come from the last rounds of branching = last wks of pregnancy Valerie Luyckx
