Almost no one exemplifies positive change, and the future of kidney health, more than pediatric nephrologist Ken Sutha, MD, PhD, recipient of the KidneyCure Jared J. Grantham Research Fellowship. In this video and profile, Dr. Sutha describes his personal journey with kidney disease and how it fueled his desire to alleviate the burden, and improve the lives, of patients with chronic kidney disease.
KidneyCure is honored to play a small part in supporting such cutting-edge work. Join us in helping outstanding researchers like Dr. Sutha transform the world of kidney care.
