KIDNEY DEVELOPMENT AND DISEASE GEBUNDEN

Kidney Development and Disease brings together established and young investigators who are
leading authorities in nephrology to describe recent advances in three primary areas of
research. The first section describes the use of animal models as powerful tools for the
discovery of numerous molecular mechanisms regulating kidney development. The second section
focuses on nephric cell renewal and differentiation  which lead to diverse cell fates within
the developing kidney  and discusses diseases resulting from the aberrant regulation of the
balance between cell fate decisions. The final section concentrates on morphogenesis of the
developing kidney and its maintenance after formation as well as the diseases resulting from
failures in these processes.Kidney form and function have been extensively studied for
centuries  leading to discoveries related to their development and disease. Recent scientific
advances in molecular and imaging techniques have broadened our understanding of nephron
development and maintenance as well as the diseases related to these processes.
