个人简介
Dr Luyckx obtained her MD degree (MBBCh) from the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa, an MSc in Public Health in Developing Countries from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and a PhD in Biomedical Ethics and Law from the University of Zurich. She completed her residency in internal medicine at Jackson Memorial Hospital, University of Miami, and nephrology training at the Brigham and Women’s and Massachusetts General Hospitals, Harvard Medical School. She has held faculty positions at the University of the Witwatersrand, Harvard Medical School, the University of Alberta in Edmonton Canada as Associate Professor and as a clinical professor (Assoc. Canada) at the Universitätsspital Zürich. She is currently an associate lecturer in the Renal Division at the Brigham, and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School and an Honorary Associate Professor in Paediatrics and Child health at the University of Cape Town. Her clinical experience includes the practice of nephrology and internal medicine across a broad range of health systems, including South Africa, Malawi, Haiti, UK, USA, urban and remote Canada and Switzerland, and in both adult and paediatric nephrology, with a focus on prevention of progression of chronic kidney disease, acute kidney injury, ICU nephrology and dialysis.
Dr Luyckx’s primary interest is in improving equity and quality of care globally, specifically regarding practical challenges of managing non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in resource limited environments. She is a strong global advocate for the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), as holistic targets for individual and societal well-being. Attainment of each SDG is necessary to reduce the NCD burden and to improve kidney health globally through addressing all its risk factors, ranging from other NCDs such as diabetes, to infections, maternal and child health, the environment, climate change, etc. She is passionate about mentoring and supporting future leaders in nephrology globally. Her ongoing interests in global health ethics and justice, understanding moral distress among health care workers, Developmental Origins of Adult Disease, and the renal effects of Alternative/Traditional Medicine complement her work on the global and population health aspects of NCDs and kidney disease.
Dr Luyckx has served as a consultant for the World Health Organization working on projects relating to ethics in Health Policy and Systems Research, public health ethics, radiation safety and strengthening of research ethics committees. She served as Scientific Secretary of the Swiss Medical Board, a body which performs independent Health Technology Assessments for Switzerland. She currently serves as deputy chair of the Advocacy Working Group of the International Society of Nephrology, is a board member of the EUDIAL Working Group of the European Dialysis and Transplant Association, is a member of the ERA Task Force to support Ukraine, and is a member of the Swiss Zentrale Ethikkommission (ZEK, Central Ethics Committee) of the Swiss Academy of medical Sciences. She is board member of the International Society of Priorities in Health.
