Overview

Lawrence B. Holzman is affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania in the United States and has contributed extensively to the field of Medicine, with a particular focus on Nephrology. Their research primarily addresses renal diseases, glomerulopathies, and associated clinical outcomes. Holzman's work encompasses a broad range of topics including chronic kidney disease, systemic sclerosis, renal cancers, amyloidosis, genetic kidney diseases, and renal cell carcinoma treatment.

Holzman has authored numerous publications across various prominent venues. Frequent publication sources include:

  • Journal of the American Society of Nephrology
  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • Kidney International
  • Pediatric Nephrology
  • American Journal of Kidney Diseases

Their recent research articles illustrate a consistent engagement with clinical and molecular studies on kidney pathology. Notable papers released in recent years are:

  • "Development and evaluation of deep learning-based segmentation of histologic structures in the kidney cortex with multiple histologic stains," 2020, Kidney International
  • "Precision nephrology identified tumor necrosis factor activation variability in minimal change disease and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis," 2022, Kidney International
  • "Kidney Biopsy Features Most Predictive of Clinical Outcomes in the Spectrum of Minimal Change Disease and Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis," 2022, Journal of the American Society of Nephrology
  • "Ultrastructural Characterization of Proteinuric Patients Predicts Clinical Outcomes," 2020, Journal of the American Society of Nephrology
  • "Quantification of Glomerular Structural Lesions: Associations With Clinical Outcomes and Transcriptomic Profiles in Nephrotic Syndrome," 2021, American Journal of Kidney Diseases

Their collaborations feature several frequent co-authors, indicating involvement in interdisciplinary and cooperative research. Key co-authors include:

  • Laura Barisoni
  • Jeffrey B. Hodgin
  • Jarcy Zee
  • Debbie S. Gipson
  • Matthias Kretzler

Holzman's publication record spans multiple subfields of study within Medicine, with a strong emphasis on:

  • Nephrology
  • Molecular Biology
  • Genetics
  • Pathology and Forensic Medicine
  • Pulmonary and Respiratory Medicine

Their main topics of scientific inquiry frequently associate morphological, molecular, and transcriptomic features with clinical outcomes in kidney diseases. This integrative approach supports advancing understanding of disease mechanisms, diagnosis, and potential therapeutic targets.
