Nephrogenetics on World Kidney Day


Genetics provides both tools and challenges for the effort to understand how a set of molecular mechanisms play out at the organ and organismal levels. Implementing existing medical knowledge is an even bigger challenge, but both resource-rich and developing countries can make cost-effective health gains by promoting public awareness of kidney function.

NOTE: In the version of this article initially published, a reference citation was incorrect: Nat. Genet. 38, 131 (2006) should have been cited instead of Nat. Genet. 39, 133 (2007). The error has been corrected in the HTML and PDF versions of the article.
