Dr. Schmidt K01 award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK)
Congratulations to Dr. Schmidt on receiving a K01 award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) for her work on advancing CKD diagnostics.
CKD is a global health issue and a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Dr. Schmidt’s research harnesses deep learning to analyze kidney biopsy images, aiming to create automated tools that improve diagnosis and predict cardiovascular outcomes. This work promises to enhance patient care by integrating advanced imaging with clinical and omics data.
