Renal health refers to the overall health and functioning of the kidneys, the two bean-shaped organs located in the back of the abdomen. The kidneys play a crucial role in filtering waste and excess fluids from the blood to produce urine, maintaining electrolyte balance, and regulating blood pressure. Research in renal health focuses on understanding the mechanisms of kidney disease, identifying risk factors, developing treatments and interventions to prevent or manage kidney-related disorders such as chronic kidney disease, acute kidney injury, kidney stones, and polycystic kidney disease. This research area is important for improving the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of kidney diseases to ultimately improve the overall health and well-being of individuals.
