  1. In light of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), recent clinical research has demonstrated that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) affects breathing and internal organs, especially the kidneys and liver function. It is evident that the kidneys are induced by the virus through the course of the medication treatments, such as the side effects that lead to kidney and liver damage. In order to scaffold kidney pathophysiology with normal kidney development and function in a virtual class or lab setting during the COVID-19 pandemic, we have developed a hands-on and cost-effective clay modeling teaching tool at the undergraduate level for learning about kidney anatomy and development. Given remote teaching, this innovative tool can be used to link the structure to molecular and cellular function through an easy hands-on model for both learning and teaching demonstration for all students.
