Supporting new approaches to kidney care with personalised care

Introducing NURTuRE 

NURTuRE contains information from patients living with different types of kidney disease in the UK, providing a unique resource to support and accelerate important new research. To date, patients diagnosed with CKD and INS have been recruited, and this will soon be extended to patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). 

This type of collection of samples for research is known as a ‘biobank’. In addition to samples of plasma, serum, urine, DNA and tissue, NURTuRE will link to long-term clinical (healthcare) data, through the UK Renal Registry and NHS Digital. The information in NURTuRE will support crucial new research, offering hope to many patients living with kidney diseases. 

Researchers will be able to apply for access to the samples and data held in NURTuRE from mid 2024, via the NURTuRE website.
