SEPTEMBER 4TH 2021

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a lifelong, genetic disease, that worsens over time as fluid-filled cysts form and enlarge both kidneys, often leading to kidney failure. Though PKD affects more than 25 thousand Australians and millions worldwide, many people have never heard of this disease. Together, we can change that! The more people that know about PKD, the closer we can get to additional treatments and a cure!
