On the International Day of Women & Girls in Science, we honor the voices, minds, and leadership shaping the future of medicine, right here in our lab. 💙 #WomenInScience #GirlsInSTEM #InternationalDayOfWomenAndGirlsInScience #SampsonLab #KidneyGenomics #STEMLeaders #FutureOfScience
Instead of studying one gene at a time, omics research looks at biology on a system-wide level, helping researchers better understand complex diseases like nephrotic syndrome. 🧬

On Tuesday, we had a fun evening at our Cheesecake Factory dinner! 🥂🍰 Always grateful for moments that bring us together outside the lab/office. #sampsonlab
In our lab, beyond investigating the causes and solutions for nephrotic syndrome, we also explore other areas where important discoveries are still waiting to be made. Here are a few of them. #sampsonlab #research #nephrology #researchmedicine #raredisease
For Diabetes Awareness Month, we’re raising awareness about how diabetes can sometimes lead to kidney complications. At the Sampson Lab, our mission is to advance research that helps support the patients and families affected. #Sampsonlab #diabetesawarenessmonth #nephrology #kidneyhealth
Through awareness, education, and early management, we can help reduce diabetes-related kidney disease and protect the health of individuals and families everywhere! #sampsonlab #kidneyhealth #awarenessmonth #raredisease
Here are 3 facts about genomics that show how far this field has come, and how it's guiding the future of precision medicine!

🩵 Nephrotic syndrome can look very different in kids vs. adults. 📊 Understanding these differences is key to early detection and better care.#KidneyHealth #NephroticSyndrome #PediatricCare #Nephrology #sampsonlab #raredisease
What is nephrotic syndrome, and what’s actually causing it? Nephrotic syndrome isn’t one disease; it’s a group of symptoms caused by damage to the kidney’s filters. Follow along as we break down the most common root causes of nephrotic syndrome one post at a time. #nephroticsyndrome #sampsonlab
The line between MCD and FSGS isn’t always obvious. Both can cause nephrotic syndrome, but the body’s response to steroid treatment helps tell them apart. This is why treatment response and sometimes biopsy results are so important.

Your kidneys are working hard for you every day, every hour. Return the favor with these small habits that lead to lifelong health. 💬 Which of these do you already do? Which one could you start this week? #KidneyFacts #HealthyKidneys #NephrologyTips #BIGKiDsStudy #KidneyHealthAwareness #sampsonlab
Our summer interns are finishing up at the end of July, and it's been great having them around the lab. From helping with current projects to fostering new collaborations, they've been a big part of the team these past few months. We'll miss having them around! #internship #summerintern #sampsonlab
Meet Anthea, one of our amazing summer interns at the Sampson Lab!
This summer, she is helping support our research on nephrotic syndrome, bringing fresh perspective, curiosity, and a whole lot of energy to the team. 🧬✨ #InternSpotlight #SampsonLab #SummerInternship
Nephrotic syndrome can be difficult to detect early, but here are two common signs to watch for. These symptoms can be subtle at first. Raising awareness helps families and clinicians catch it early and take action.
