Kostas Stylianou | Nephrology | Research Excellence Award

Published on by Popular Scientist

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Kostas Stylianou | Nephrology | Research Excellence Award

Nephrology Dept | Greece

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Kostas Stylianou is a clinician scientist in nephrology whose work integrates advanced clinical practice with translational research on complex kidney disorders. His academic and professional experience spans leadership in nephrology units, extensive involvement in multidisciplinary kidney care, and contributions to national and international scientific initiatives. His research focuses on the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying familial and chronic kidney diseases of unclear origin, with particular emphasis on collagen IV nephropathies, Alport-related conditions, LCAT deficiency syndromes, and other inherited glomerular disorders. He has contributed significantly to the understanding of molecular pathways such as PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling in autoimmune kidney disease and has advanced the study of cardiorenal interactions through clinical and biomarker-based investigations. His work includes detailed analysis of kidney biopsies using electron microscopy and integration of genomic and proteomic profiling to improve diagnostic precision. Dr. Stylianou participates in major collaborative projects addressing rare genetic nephropathies and contributes to multicentre clinical trials exploring novel therapeutic approaches in nephrology. He is widely recognized for his scientific output, editorial responsibilities, and reviewing activities across high-impact journals. His expertise is further reflected in the organization of national and international nephrology conferences and in his longstanding role in medical education, where he trains undergraduate students, postgraduate learners, and nephrology trainees. Through his combined clinical, research, and academic commitments, he has established a strong reputation in genetic kidney disease research, cardiorenal medicine, and evidence-based nephrology practice.
