This work combined with other roles serving the Glomerular Disease Advisory Group for the American Society of Nephrology has positioned her as a top contributor to this review.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is truly an honor to be invited because the KDIGO guidelines are widely respected across the globe, and a very important source of information to practicing nephrologists,\u201d said Dr. Gibson.<\/p>\n<p>The conference will identify and delineate key questions and areas of controversies regarding the diagnosis and treatment of glomerular diseases. This work will not only set the stage for updating guidelines for the treatment of glomerular disease, it will guide researchers who are working on drug development pertaining to glomerular diseases.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Patrick Nachman participated in the 2012 KDIGO Guidelines on Glomerular Diseases focusing on the section on ANCA vasculitis and lupus nephritis. Since then, he has continued working on these and other glomerular diseases. This has led to publications related to complications of membranous nephropathy and their prevention, as well as a white paper pertaining to the use of surrogate endpoints in clinical trials.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve made substantial progress in understanding the mechanisms of disease, genetic factors, and treatments for glomerular disease over the last decade,\u201d said Dr. Nachman. \u201cThis is a particularly exciting time to be helping translate research into better treatments and outcomes for our patients.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b><a class=\"external-link\" title=\"charles_jennette\" href=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/pathology\/faculty-2\/biosketch-of-dr-jennette\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dr. Charles Jennette<\/a><\/b>, Kenneth M.
