LAUNCH is a multi-institutional training program that brings together UCSF, UC Berkeley, UC Davis, and Stanford University to advance research and training in kidney, urology, and non-malignant hematology (KUH). By connecting trainees, mentors, and resources across four leading Northern California research institutions, LAUNCH creates a collaborative environment that extends beyond any single campus.
This partnership gives trainees access to a broad range of scientific expertise, research approaches, professional development opportunities, and mentoring networks. Together, our partner institutions strengthen interdisciplinary and team-based research while preparing the next generation of investigators to become leaders in KUH science.
