Dr. K.S. Nayak
Dr. Nayak’s preclinical research is exemplary, highlighted by his collaborations with the Renal Research Institute (New York), where he advanced renal drug discovery, toxicology, and medical device development. His translational studies on allo-hemodialysis and the pharmacokinetics of immunosuppressants such as tacrolimus bridge laboratory research with clinical application, making advanced treatments more accessible to patients with chronic kidney disease.
With over 100 publications, a Google Scholar citation count exceeding 900, and contributions to international guidelines, Dr. Nayak’s work continues to shape global standards in renal care. His impact has been recognized with numerous awards, including the Dronacharya Award (2022), the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Peritoneal Dialysis Society of India (2014), and the Rajeev Chakra Bharatiya Award.
A global connector, Dr. Nayak serves on the advisory boards of leading nephrology societies and journals. He actively mentors healthcare ventures, medical device companies, and drug discovery firms, and holds influential roles in the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis and the International Society of Nephrology.
His patented telemedicine systems and leadership in India’s first simultaneous heart-kidney transplant highlight his integration of clinical, preclinical, and technological innovation. As a mentor for ISPD’s first South Asian Fellowship Programme, Dr. Nayak continues to champion equitable renal care delivery across both emerging and developed markets.
