The primary objective is to collaborate with various sites to obtain and evaluate kidney biopsies from participants suffering from acute kidney injury (AKI) or chronic kidney disease (CKD), ultimately creating a Kidney Tissue Atlas and identifying critical disease subgroups and therapeutic targets. This initiative is crucial for advancing kidney disease research and developing novel therapies, with an estimated total program funding of $6 million and an expected seven awards to be made.
