Kidney Health with
Decentralized Science

KidneyDAO is a non-profit community owned network committed to funding and supporting groundbreaking research to advance kidney health.

Our Mission

Tackling the silent killer - kidney diseases - with the power of our global community!

A Human Centered Approach

Our patient-centric research focuses on reversing Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) progression, lowering dialysis costs, and advancing stem cell and transplant solutions. By championing innovative solutions and improving accessibility to care, we are committed to combating organ trafficking and ensuring  life-saving kidney health innovations reach all who need them, regardless of geographic or economic barriers.

Empowering our Community

Decentralized Science is an innovative approach to kidney health research that leverages community-driven collaboration, transparent funding, and open access to knowledge.  It empowers a global network of researchers, clinicians, patients, and supporters to collectively accelerate kidney health discoveries and their translation into real-world treatments.

Accelerating Research

KidneyDAOs’ global community  democratizes the research process, enables faster funding of promising projects, and ensures that breakthroughs in kidney health are accessible to all, ultimately leading to more efficient and equitable advancements in kidney care worldwide.
