Goals

  • To explore the molecular and immunological basis of glomerular diseases, tubular transport disorders, vascular calcification, kidney replacement therapy and ciliopathies. 
  • To develop biomarkers for optimal prediction of disease prognosis and treatment efficacy. 
  • To study therapeutic strategies that emerge from these insights.

Research groups contributing to this research program

Computational pathology

Jeroen van der Laak's research group aims to develop, validate and implement artificial intelligence to support pathology diagnostics.

Kidney physiology

Jeroen de Baaij's research group wants to decipher the mechanisms of electrolyte disorders.

Molecular renal physiology

Ronald Hoenderop's research group aims to study electrolyte disorders by combining patient genetics with cell, organoid, and animal models to explore kidney mineral regulation and its disruption in cardiovascular and kidney disease.
