🔬 New PICKED publication! Julia Byrska and fellow PICKED DCs contributed to a study developing a urinary peptidomic signature for non-invasive diagnosis of Alport syndrome in children. 📖 Read more: projectpicked.eu/publication… #PICKEDproject #AlportSyndrome #KidneyResearch

Why does open science matter in kidney research? Making research transparent, accessible, and reusable can improve reproducibility, collaboration, and scientific progress. #OpenScience #FAIRData #KidneyResearch #PICKEDproject

What is a multiparametric biomarker? Instead of relying on a single signal, researchers combine several molecular and clinical measurements to build a more complete picture of individual kidney disease risk. #Biomarkers #CKD #KidneyResearch #PrecisionMedicine #PICKEDproject

Doctoral Candidates and PIs also joined the PerMedik meeting, connecting with researchers working on personalised medicine in CKD and big-data approaches. A great opportunity to strengthen collaboration across European research networks. #PerMedik #COSTAction #KidneyResearch

🔬 The PICKED network met in Tallinn to share research progress and explore biomarkers, computational modelling, treatment response, entrepreneurship and patenting. 📖 Read more: lnkd.in/ec4-6iCv #PICKEDProject #KidneyResearch #PersonalisedMedicine #MSCA

Is chronic kidney disease different in children? Paediatric CKD is often linked to developmental disorders such as CAKUT, rather than diabetes or hypertension. That is why children need age-specific biomarkers, risk models, and treatment strategies. #PaediatricNephrology #CKD

Can personalised medicine be truly personalised if access is unequal? Advanced diagnostics, biomarkers and digital tools may not be equally available to every patient. #PersonalisedMedicine #HealthEquity #KidneyResearch #PICKEDproject

Why do doctors look at trends, not just one kidney test result? A single eGFR, albuminuria, or blood pressure value is only a snapshot. Repeated measurements can show whether kidney health is stable, improving, or declining over time. #CKD #KidneyHealth #Nephrology

Finding a biomarker is only the beginning. Before it can support clinical decisions, it must be measured reliably, validated in patients, independently tested, and shown to improve care. #Biomarkers #KidneyResearch #PrecisionMedicine #PICKEDproject

Personalised real time dialysis? We are exploring optical monitoring of spent dialysate to track uremic peptide removal during treatment. This could support more individualised dialysis and provide immediate feedback. #Dialysis #KidneyResearch #PersonalisedMedicine

Can acute kidney injury have long-term consequences? Even when kidney function appears to recover, inflammation, incomplete tissue repair, or fibrosis may persist and increase the risk of CKD. #AKI #CKD #KidneyResearch #Biomarkers #PICKEDproject

Why are urine samples so valuable in kidney research? They can be collected non-invasively, repeatedly, and contain peptides, proteins and other molecular signals linked to kidney damage, inflammation and treatment response. #KidneyResearch #Biomarkers #Peptidomics #PICKED

What is kidney reserve? Healthy nephrons can compensate for early kidney damage, keeping eGFR normal even while disease progresses. #KidneyHealth #CKD #Biomarkers #EarlyDetection
