Harold A. Saul, of our Tampa office, was nominated and accepted as a non-professional member to the Kidney Health Initiative (KHI). KHI is headed up by the American Society of Nephrology (ASN). Its mission is to advance scientific understanding of kidney health and patient safety implications of new and existing medical products and to foster the development of therapies for diseases that affect the kidneys by creating a collaborative environment in which FDA and the greater nephrology community can interact to optimize evaluation of medicines, devices, biologics, and food products. Harold is also actively involved with the PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease) Foundation. He received a kidney transplant in June of 2012 at Tampa General Hospital.
