The Souma lab studies the molecular mechanisms of renal stress adaptation and ferroptosis in renal repair
Check out our new work on #ferroptosis! Now online in @CellReports. First #scRNAseq of ferroptotic kidneys that identifies female resilience mechanisms. "Sex differences in resilience to ferroptosis underlie sexual dimorphism in kidney injury and repair" cell.com/cell-reports/f…
If you haven’t read this great thread by @l_obrien_lab, @P_NGUETTA, & @S_Ray_09, then you’re missing out. Treat your eyes and mind to this visually stunning explanation of how nerves innervate the kidney during development. Read the full paper here: cell.com/cell-reports/f…
Happy to share our latest manuscript now out in Cell Reports! In lieu of a Tweetorial, I'll post amazing images from the manuscript and please check out the article for our spatiotemporal mapping of kidney innervation and new findings! cell.com/cell-reports/f…

I am so excited to visit @UNCKidney @UNC_CBP. Carl Gottschalk painstakingly demonstrated how urine can be concentrated relative to plasma. This is fundamental to terrestrial life #countercurrent #nephtwitter What an honor and privilege to be connected with Dr. Gottschalk!
Join us on Monday, Nov. 25th at 12:30 pm in MBRB G202 for the 24th Annual Gottschalk Lecture. @samirparikhmd will discuss how to turn back kidney frailty by targeting metabolism. @UNCKidney
