Hello, please visit the website “the kidney project”. It seems wonderful to me. Complete the easy form to put your name in the database. They say it should be available in 2020. UCSF, Dr. Shuvo. Read about it.

Hi @kathleenla, and welcome to Connect. You'll see that I moved your message about a bioartifical kidney to this discussion that @gregsr started a while back. He, too, is excited about the possibility of this innovation.

Here's the link to the UCSF website that Kathleen refers https://pharm.ucsf.edu/kidney The frequently asked questions page for patients is particularly informative https://pharm.ucsf.edu/kidney/device/faq

Kathleen, What is your interest in the project? Do you have kidney disease?
