Kidney disease is more common than people realise. By 2040, kidney failure may be the fifth most common cause of death, if nothing is done. With the Ingrid Asp Kidney Research Center, LiU will drive the development of knowledge and new treatments.

Daniel Appelgren is investigating a type of renal disease in which the immune system attacks and damages the kidneys. He has been awarded a grant of SEK 1.25 million from the Ingrid Asp Foundation to carry out renal research at LiU.
