It is a distinct pleasure to be recognized by the @PKDFoundation for our work in neural control in PKD. It is a remarkably rewarding field of research, and we can't wait to see where our studies lead! If you have any questions on the science - you know where to find me! #EndPKD
Meet PKD researcher Christopher Banek, PhD. We sat down with him to discuss his ongoing work at Banek Laboratory, where he studies the role of peripheral sensory nerves in the development and maintenance of PKD.

Do you like kidneys? How about art? How about PRIZES?! If the answer is yes to all (or any of the above), consider submitting your best work to APS Renal #sciart competition! Brownie points if you include afferent nerves in that image :)
“So often we find ourselves thinking about what PKD has taken from us. I wanted to find a positive outlook and ask, ‘What has pkd given me?’” #PKDCON2023
It is an honor to receive this award from the PKD Foundation to study the autonomic contributions to renal cystogenesis in ARPKD here at @UAZPSIO@UAZHealth. We can't wait to get started! Cheers to the @PKDFoundation and this year's PKD Grant and Fellowship awardees. #endPKD
Meet our 2023 Grant and Fellowship awardees!! This year we are so excited to be able to increase our grants program by 20%! Learn more about our currently funded research ➡️ https://t.co/vB4k2Tsis8
Great work by all our Physiology folks who presented at Research Day!
Here is Assistant Professor Chris Banek presenting “Renal Denervation: Leveraging the Kidney’s Nervous System to Combat Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)” at the event.
Another elegant Physio MS defense from our own Melissa Dennis on her extensive work on vascular dysfunction in ARPKD. Pub is back in review, so hopefully able to share her work shortly! Next step for Melissa: MD. Cheers to a brilliant mind, and a bright future🥂. #ProudPI#endPKD
So proud of our own Christian Leung successfully defending his Biomedical Engineering MS thesis work on renal mechano-sensitive afferent nerves and beat-to-beat activity. Paper on the way! Christian is now ready to crush it in the engineering job market in Austin, TX. #proudPI
@themixbymeeghan That could certainly be the theme of the meeting … Just a whirlwind of networking and not enough time. That said, it was a wonderful meeting. Hats off to APS! At our next meeting, I will be sure to visit the APS booth and catch up with everyone. It’s been far too long!
