Season 6 Episode 7: The Design and Conduct of Cohort Studies of People with CKD
<p>Cohort studies have played a pivotal role in advancing our understanding of chronic kidney disease (CKD), providing invaluable insights into disease progression, risk factors, and patient outcomes. In this episode of the Global Kidney Care Podcast, host <strong>Maarten Taal</strong> is joined by <strong>Roberto Pecoits-Filho</strong> and <strong>Natalia Alencar de Pinho</strong> to discuss the principles behind designing and conducting high-quality CKD cohort studies, drawing on the collective experience of the <a href="https://www.theisn.org/in-action/research/cohort-studies-inet-ckd/"><strong>International Network of CKD Cohort Studies (iNET-CKD)</strong></a>.</p><p>The conversation explores what makes cohort studies uniquely valuable in nephrology, the practical challenges of establishing and maintaining long-term cohorts, and the lessons learned from decades of collaborative research. The speakers also reflect on the importance of international partnerships, discussing how networks such as iNET-CKD enable researchers to address questions that no single cohort could answer alone while strengthening kidney research across diverse healthcare settings.</p><p>Looking ahead, the discussion considers how CKD cohort studies are evolving to meet emerging research priorities and what the next decade may hold for observational kidney research. <strong>Listeners will gain insights into why sustained collaboration, robust study design, and global data sharing remain essential</strong> for improving outcomes for people living with CKD.</p><p><br>Host</p><p><strong>Maarten Taal</strong></p><p>Former Chair of the ISN International Network of CKD Cohort Studies (iNET-CKD) and current Deputy Chair of the ISN Research Working Group. Professor of Medicine at the University of Nottingham, UK, Professor Taal is a leading nephrologist whose research focuses on the epidemiology and progression of chronic kidney disease, with a particular interest in CKD cohort studies, international research collaboration, and improving outcomes for people living with kidney disease.</p><p><br>Guests</p><p><strong>Roberto Pecoits-Filho</strong></p><p>Chair of the ISN International Network of CKD Cohort Studies (iNET-CKD). Originally from Brazil and currently based in the United States, Dr. Pecoits-Filho is a leading nephrologist and researcher who has been instrumental in building global collaborations that advance research and knowledge in chronic kidney disease.</p><p><strong>Natalia Alencar de Pinho</strong></p><p>Deputy Chair of the ISN International Network of CKD Cohort Studies (iNET-CKD) and Clinical Epidemiologist at Paris-Saclay University and Inserm, France.
