Biography
Dr. Lederer received her medical training in Houston, Tx, at Baylor College of Medicine, including medical school, internal medicine residency, and nephrology fellowship training. She served as Chief Medical Resident at the Ben Taub General Hospital, co-director of the kidney transplant program and the Medical Director of the Pancreas Transplant Program at the Methodist Hospital. She moved to the University of Louisville in 1991 where she developed an independent research program in the study of phosphate transport in the proximal tubule. She served as Division Chief of Nephrology and Hypertension, Interim Associate Dean of Research for the University of Louisville School of Medicine, and Interim Chair of Medicine. She was a Merit Review-funded investigator at the affiliated Robley Rex VA Medical Center where she also served as Interim Chief of Medical Services and Associate Chief of Staff. She has been very active in the American Society of Nephrology where she served on the Executive Committee of the Training Program Directors, the Publications Committee, and the Council, ultimately serving as President of ASN in 2017.
Dr. Lederer moved to the University of Texas Southwestern, motivated by the strong Division of Nephrology, the commitment to all aspects of the academic mission, and the strength of its Mineral Metabolism Center. She is currently funded through the VA to study the regulation of PTH, phosphate, and calcium in chronic kidney disease and is an active clinician with expertise in general nephrology, renal physiology, nephrolithiasis, genetic kidney disease, and kidney transplantation.
