This looks promising. Does this have NKF’s support?

Yes! NKF is very excited by all research to improve care of patients and to work toward a cure, including research on artificial kidneys. In addition, NKF funds research investigator-initiated, patient-oriented clinical research projects led by Young Investigators: kidney.org/professionals/re.... Also, NKF is highly committed to patient engagement in innovation, for example, please see our recent comments to the FDA: kidney.org/sites/default/fi...

Thanks so much! Given the huge possibilities would you be prioritsing the Artificial kidney project? Support from the national kidney foundation would mean a lot as the project is currently approaching final approval from the FDA.

I follow this project all the time. Am hoping funding will hold up to get it on the market by 2020. I feel confident it will😀
