#39 Sex and gender disparities in the epidemiology and outcomes of chronic kidney disease, with Adeera Levin

Update: 2025-03-13

Description

In this episode, we explore sex and gender disparities in the epidemiology and outcomes of chronic kidney disease. Did you know that women are less likely to receive a CKD diagnosis, visit a nephrologist, or access guideline-recommended therapies—even in developed countries?
To help us unpack these critical issues, we're joined by Professor Adeera Levin, Head of the Division of Nephrology at the University of British Columbia in Canada
Together, we’ll discuss the biological, societal, and systemic barriers driving these disparities and, more importantly, how we can overcome them.
