Players and resources

Published on 20 February 2025

The organization of the REIN network, whose institutional support is provided by the Agence de la biomédecine, is based on close collaboration between numerous players at local, regional and national level. This page presents the network's players, its partners, and their respective roles in this organization, which constitutes the observatory for chronic kidney disease.

REIN network players

The REIN network is based on a multi-level collaborative organization, at the heart of which is the REIN registry. This tool centralizes data on patients with stage 4 and 5 chronic kidney disease in France, enabling in-depth analysis of care pathways and medical practices. At local level, medical and administrative teams enter and transmit information via secure applications developed by the agency. The data are consolidated by regional REIN units, comprising clinical research associates, coordinating nephrologists and epidemiologists. The Agency's national coordination unit oversees all these activities, harmonizing practices and exploiting data to meet health and scientific challenges.

REIN network partners

The REIN network relies on a wide range of partners, including learned societies and patient associations. These partners, members of the REIN Scientific Advisory Board, participate in the development of the REIN Registry's scientific policy and in REIN Network research projects.
