2025 KI Best Reviewer
Kidney International® (KI) reviewers were evaluated by number of reviews completed, quality of each review as assessed by the KI Associate Editors, and length of time manuscripts were under review.
Dr. Baptiste Lamarthée is an immunologist at the Université Marie et Louis Pasteur, Inserm UMR Right, Établissement Français du Sang, in Besançon, France. Here he has led an independent research group since 2023. He specializes in solid organ transplantation, with a focus on kidney allograft rejection and the role of myeloid cells in graft injury. He completed three postdoctoral fellowships in the laboratories of Professor D. Anglicheau (INEM, Paris, France), Professor J. Zuber (Imagine Institute, Paris, France), and Professor M. Naesens (KU Leuven, Leuven, Belgium), where he developed expertise in translational immunology.
Dr. Lamarthée’s team combines cellular engineering of monocyte and macrophage populations with multiomic analyses, including single-cell transcriptomics and high-dimensional immunophenotyping, to dissect the functional heterogeneity of myeloid cells during graft rejection. The goal of his research is to identify key myeloid-driven pathways involved in allograft damage and to develop targeted immunomodulatory strategies for transplantation.
