Please join us as leading experts, James Calvet, PhD and Arlene Chapman, MD, take us on a journey of the past discoveries, clinical advancements made, and the present state of affairs in the PKD research field with the NephU webinar titled, “Polycystic Kidney Disease Research – Past, Present and Future: Part I.”

Please join us as leading experts, James Calvet, PhD and Arlene Chapman, MD, take us on a journey of the past discoveries, clinical advancements made, and the present state of affairs in the PKD research field with the NephU webinar titled, “Polycystic Kidney Disease Research – Past, Present and Future: Part I.”

In this Part 1 of a 3 Part series, we will briefly describe the pathophysiology of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) including its cellular, metabolic, and systemic impact. Then, we will discuss the nutritional/diet management strategies for ADPKD, with an emphasis on using the Ketogenic Diet. We will set the stage for Part 2, describing a Plant-Focused Ketogenic Diet Program for improved ADPKD outcomes.

Join us for part 2 of this informative international webinar where Professor Andrew Mallett, nephrologist and clinical researcher (Australia), and Dr Hila Rasouly, research scientist and genetic counselor (USA), discuss clinical genomics and its applications in kidney disease, including genetic testing for diagnosis and prognosis and the question of determining which patients to test, barriers to access, global differences across healthcare landscapes, and implications for the patient.

Part 1 of this series described the fact that ADPKD is a metabolic reprogramming disease, which may benefit from novel diet strategies such as a ketogenic diet. Part 2 of this 3-part series will discuss and describe the use of a Plant-Focused Ketogenic Diet (PFKD) program for improved ADPKD outcomes.

Join us for Part II of our “Polycystic Kidney Disease Research – Past, Present, and Future” webinar where talented and emerging experts discuss efforts being made to further elucidate the molecular pathways contributing to disease and shed light on cutting edge research that may one day lead to improved options for patients living with PKD.
