#kidneydisease is on an exponential rise in the region, and some #autoimmunediseases are more prominent in this region

With the unique demographics we have here, esp the work being done in the region like with the Emirati Genome Project, there are huge opportunities to advance our understanding of #kidneydisease to improve #kidneycare not just in the region but globally

10% of the world's population is currently living with Chronic Kidney Disease and the burgeoning population living with #dialysis and #kidneytransplant

This is a great event to meet and network with people from Academia, Industry, Providers, and Regulators all looking for opportunities to collaborate to develop solutions and models of care to ensure we deliver the best and most precise treatment for our patients

Looking forward to rekindling some projects and embarking on new projects as there is a huge untapped opportunity in this space to help our patients while creating value for our organizations and the hashtag#healthcaresystems we operate in
