This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) requests applications for Recruitment Sites (RS) to enroll adult and/or pediatric patients with Type 1 diabetes (T1D) with, or at high risk of, diabetic nephropathy into a longitudinal cohort study and perform protocol-based research kidney biopsies.
These
T1D RS will leverage the existing resources of the Kidney Precision Medicine Project (KPMP).
T1D RS will collaborate directly with the KPMP to obtain and evaluate kidney biopsies from participants, create a Kidney Tissue Atlas, define disease subgroups, and identify critical cells, interstitial components, pathways, and targets for novel therapies.
Current KPMP RS are not eligible to apply.
