🧬💙💚Celebrating the science, collaboration, and friendships behind #TheAPOLLOStudy at @ASNKidney #KidneyWeek2026 in beautiful Denver, Colorado! 🏔️🍁 🔬 The @NIH-supported #APOL1 Long-term Kidney Transplantation Outcomes Network (#APOLLO) brings together investigators from across the country to better understand how APOL1 genetic variants influence #KidneyTransplantoutcomes and the long-term health of #LivingKidneyDonors.🧬 🤲🏽 Wonderful to connect with @ApolloNetwork13 colleagues and friends, including #BarryFreedman, #MarvaMoxeyMims, @mannonmom, #ChiyuanHsu, @emp802, @sylviaerosasD_M_Dadhania, @DeirdreSawinski, @D_M_Dadhania , @MonaDoshiMD, @SumitMohanMD, #MatthewWeir ➕ more! 🤝🏽 One of the most rewarding aspects of APOLLO has been the opportunity to work alongside such dedicated investigators over the years. These collaborations have fostered lasting friendships, shared mentorship, and a remarkable community committed to advancing kidney health. 🌟APOLLO represents the power of sustained, multicenter collaboration, bringing together expertise in nephrology, transplantation, genetics, epidemiology, and community engagement to address important questions in kidney care. 💙💚Grateful for the scientific progress, the friendships, and the opportunity to continue this journey together toward more personalized, informed, and patient-centered #transplantation! 📍ASN Kidney Week 2026 | Denver, Colorado #KidneyWeek2026 #APOLLO #APOL1 #KidneyTransplantation #PrecisionMedicine #Nephrology #KidneyResearch #Collaboration #Collaboration

🌏✨ @ApolloNetwork13 Investigators at @ttsorg 2026 in Sydney! 🇦🇺 🤲🏽 The #APOLLO Consortium was excited to see investigators from our Clinical Centers come together at the 31st International Congress of #TheTransplantationSociety — sharing science, exchanging ideas, and strengthening collaborations across the transplant community. 🫱🏽‍🫲🏼🧬 🎤 @mannonmom (CC4| @UNMCkidney), had a strong scientific presence throughout the congress, contributing to multiple sessions spanning #KidneyTransplantation, desensitization, rejection, and emerging therapies. 🎤 @KristaLentine (CC3 | @SSMHealthSTL) contributed invited presentations on older #DonorOrgan utilization and a shared framework for #LivingDonation, and co-chaired a session on #senotherapy in transplantation. 🌐 Mariella Ortigosa-Goggins (CC11 | @univmiami), joined fellow APOLLO investigators in Sydney 🇦🇺— another opportunity to connect across centers and strengthen the relationships that support collaborative transplant research.💚💙 💫 International meetings like #TTS remind us that advancing science happens both at the podium and through the connections we build beyond it. 🧬 APOLLO at TTS: Networking • Collaboration • Research • Community 🫶🏼 #APOLLO #TTS2026 #Transplantation #KidneyTransplant #TransplantResearch #LivingDonation #OrganDonation #Collaboration

📣 Proud to share this important new video resource from the @ApolloNetwork13 (#APOL1 Long-term Kidney Transplantation Outcomes Network🧬 ) Community👇🏽 How can we advance research involving deceased donor organs while ensuring that donor families are informed, respected, and meaningfully engaged? 💛 🎥 In this conversation, donor family members, #CommunityAdvisors, researchers, and #transplantprofessionals come together to discuss best practices for next-of-kin #research authorization after consent for organ donation, and why these conversations matter. 🧬 We also introduce the NIH-funded #APOLLOStudyand discuss how understanding APOL1 genetic variants in kidney donors and recipients may help improve #KidneyTransplantationand advance health outcomes in African American communities. 💙💚 🙏🏽 Very grateful to the @AST_info (#AST) for its partnership with the APOLLO #DisseminationWorkingGroup in bringing this important community conversation forward. 💙💚 🤝🏽 Kudos to our outstanding panel and community partners: @itsglendar | Jennifer Davis | @DrRoSchmidt | @nicholejeff | @KristaLentine | @Heather Johnson | Marva Moxey-Mims | @jnkodim | Mariella Ortigosa-Goggins ➕ the dedicated working group for developing this series @anna_smith_anna | @SuperChaperone | @sylviaerosas | @lrussell6868 | @Kashawna__ 💫 🫶 #Research is strongest when the communities it is intended to serve have a voice in how it is designed, discussed, and carried forward. 🦋 #APOLLO #APOL1 #KidneyTransplant #OrganDonation #TransplantResearch #CommunityEngagement #KidneyHealth #HealthEquity #Transplantation #AST 📺 Watch and share the conversation: youtu.be/ymDXdOArqd
