22^nd World Nephrology Conference

Environmental and Occupational Nephrology

Environmental and Occupational Nephrology explores the intricate relationship between environmental toxins, occupational hazards, and kidney health. This field emphasizes the identification and mitigation of risks associated with pollutants, heavy metals, and chemical exposures, aiming to prevent kidney diseases linked to work environments. Research highlights the impact of industrial exposure, climate change, and urbanization on renal function, guiding public health policies and occupational safety measures. By advancing knowledge on environmental nephrotoxicity and advocating for preventative strategies, professionals strive to reduce the burden of kidney disease and improve long-term renal health outcomes across vulnerable populations.
