ASN Pre-Doctoral Fellowship Award
S. Ananth Karumanchi, MD
2002 Carl W. Gottschalk Research Scholar Grant
Beating the Odds: A Researcher’s Creative Vision Realized
“ASN took a chance on me.”
From his earliest exposure to medicine, S. Ananth Karumanchi, MD was “fascinated by the way the kidney precisely filters out all the toxic material and maintains the electrolytes and acid-base status.”
William Henry Fissell, MD
2009 Carl W. Gottschalk Research Scholar Grant Recipient
Inspired by Kidney Patients, a Polymath Takes Kidney Care Into the Future
“ASN threw me a lifeline.”
While working as an EMT during a leave of absence from college, William Henry Fissell, MD often helped care for dialysis patients. “I fell in love with them because they were striving to live despite all the pain and fear of their everyday lives.” The grace with which these patients faced their challenges inspired Dr. Fissell to return to MIT, earn bachelor’s degrees in physics and electrical engineering, and then a medical degree from Case Western Reserve University.
