Research

The main purpose of my research projects aims to contribute to better understand chronic kidney disease (CKD) across its different stages, its etiologies and its complications
to identify (modifiable) risks factors and biomarkers of CKD, CKD progression, its complications, and of CKD-related diseases
to contribute to better characterize the prognosis of CKD and improve risk stratification
and to assess real-life clinical and therapeutic management associated with improved clinical outcomes in CKD.
