Christine White

Dr. Christine White is a Professor in the Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, at Queen’s University School of Medicine. Her research spans nephrology, endocrinology, and chronic kidney disease, with a focus on renal replacement modalities and mineral bone disorders.

• Doctorate of Medicine (M.D.), Queen's University at Kingston (1999)
• Master's of Sciences (Cellular and Molecular Pathology), University of Toronto (1995)
• Bachelor of Sciences (Human Biology), University of Toronto (1993)

White’s research explores glomerular filtration rate estimation, phosphate metabolism in CKD, and biomarker validation (e.g., beta-trace protein). She investigates proteinuria quantification in transplantation and standardization of creatinine assays for accurate GFR measurement.

Her work reveals trends in nephrology, including the use of beta-trace protein for GFR estimation, inter-laboratory creatinine variability impacts on CKD diagnosis, and novel equations for renal function assessment in transplant recipients.
