Sometimes the research is so exciting that Dave, Janewit Wongboonsin, MD, MS and I have midnight zooms to go over our results 🤓🤓🤓....Just kidding, it's really a "ThaimeZone" thing. Sampson Lab for Kidney Genomics #kidneyomics🧬🫘

Thrilled to be sharing my experience with the Thai pediatric nephrology association !

An incredible collaboration that began 4 years ago!

Thrilled to gave a talk on TMA for the current Thai nephrology fellow. Welcoming all of them to the world of #kidneygenes Inspired to do this project since one dinner chat with Johann Morelle from 2 years ago during USTMA Alliance and Consortium pre-ASN. Excited to see what we will learn

Basics of Glomerulonephritis (GN). GBM is key. All patterns can be explained by glomerular basement membrane (GBM) & type of injury. Let’s do one at a time CRESCENTIC GN 1. Results from breach/break of GBM (red arrow) 2. Injury is sudden & severe Eg-ANCA & anti-GBM GN

Basics of GN (part 2) Clinical presentation correlates with location of injury & state of GBM 1. Epi/Subepithelial injury=nephrotic 2. GBM breach=RPGN 3. Subendothelial injury:acute/DPGN= nephritic 4. Subendothelial injury: chronic/MPGN & double contour= Nephritic-nephrotic
