Organoids

Research by Iain Drummond, Ph.D., Brings Science Closer to Kidney Replacement Tissue

We all know our kidneys are charged with filtering our blood – an astonishing 52 gallons of it a day. But how does that actually happen? It turns out that it’s not unlike what one might imagine. Each of the body’s approximately one million nephrons, the functional units of the kidney, contains a glomerulus, or…
