Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Joseph L. Alge's research focuses on kidney and lung interactions, particularly in the context of acute kidney injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome. His work also investigates the association of COVID-19 and vaccination with kidney function and disease activity in primary glomerular disease, drawing from data within the Cure Glomerulonephropathy Study. Alge studies genetic factors contributing to persistent, isolated hematuria in children, specifically variants in genes coding for collagen type IV α-chains. Additionally, his research addresses acute kidney injury following pediatric cardiac surgery and explores age-related changes in brain structure in pediatric chronic kidney disease. Alge also examines urinary biomarkers for predicting adverse outcomes in patients with acute kidney injury post-cardiac surgery and investigates genetic reprogramming with stem cells for regenerating glomerular epithelial podocytes in Alport syndrome.
