kidney
Brief Description of Research Interest :
Basically, the aim of my research is to study the effects of diabetes over the kidney function, with special attention to inflammation and fibrosis. Since there is no effective drug available for treatment of diabetic nephropathy to date, understanding the molecular mechanisms of renal damage is critical for the development of new agents that can stop and even revert the progression of this devastating condition.
