The goal is to improve the understanding of kidney disease mechanisms, leading to better prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. Key aspects include comprehensive phenotyping, clinical biopsies with residual tissue for research, and collaboration with other KPMP components.
• The study aims to create a Kidney Tissue Atlas and define disease subgroups.
• Applicants must submit a Data Management and Sharing Plan.
• The NIDDK will have a significant role in the study, including the appointment of a Project Scientist.
• Awardees will be required to participate in Steering Committee meetings and adhere to the decisions made by the Committee.
