DESCRIPTION:
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) contributes to 1.7 million deaths annually. Its societal burden extends even further since surviving patients may develop chronic kidney disease and even require dialysis. In 2020, the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) established the AKINow initiative, aiming to promote excellence in the prevention and treatment of AKI. Herein, we describe the ongoing projects developed by the AKINow Basic Science Workgroup.
