Funded Activity Summary

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an important public health problem in Australia and worldwide. Not only does CKD predisposes to end-stage kidney disease, but more importantly, increases the risk of co-morbidities such as cancer and cardiovascular disease, leading to premature death. As an academic nephrologist with interests in clinical epidemiology, health economics and translation research, this proposed program of work will focus on assessing the critical areas in improving the cancer outcomes in patients with CKD.
