Focused on defining the mechanisms that underlie the transcriptional and epigenetic regulation of cardiac electrophysiology in human and murine models.
It's the 10-year anniv of the 1st patient treated with StereoTactic Arrhythmia Radiotherapy (STAR) by @DoctorPhillEP & @SBRT_CR! We've given many talks, been featured in media, formed a center, held intl symposiums, helped 100 centers begin STAR & now treated our 100th patient!
A role for protein aggregates in heart failure?
This issue’s cover features work from ASCI member Abhinav Diwan @DiwanlabWustl & team @washumedicine on protein aggregation in the post–myocardial infarction myocardium: buff.ly/YOFkNCq
Imagine running a restaurant & suddenly only having budget for ingredients & chefs—no rent, electricity, heat, water, support staff, insurance, trash, toilet paper.
This is what 'cutting indirects' did to every major biomedical center & hospital in the US.
Big #RegenerativeMedicine advance! New study demonstrates the use of iPSC-heart muscle to treat a patient with heart failure. The patches successfully engrafted, contributing to heart repair. Patient survived 3 months before receiving a heart transplant nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
If you treat lung cancer & have queries about radiation heart disease then check out this new @WashUMedRadOnc paper!
100 years on from its 1st description we summarise what is known (and not known) & highlight priorities for the field to maximise patient benefit
Together with @American_Heart, we are proud to present our Collaborative Science in #SingleVentricle Heart Disease Program awardees!
Proposals from 5 outstanding research teams were selected for funding, for a total investment of over $13M.

We think this one is groundbreaking: Do you wonder how #SGLT2 inhibitors protect from heart failure? We show that #empagliflozen directly activates PANK1, rate-limiting for CoA synthesis, in human hearts. You read it here first! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Ecstatic to be awarded the K99 from @nih_nhlbi. Many thanks to my family, friends, and mentors, including my PhD mentor @RentschlerLab, for their continued support. Special shout-out to my lab mates and my postdoc mentor @jmartinlab. Looking forward to the science ahead!
Congratulations to @glennfishman on receiving the Heart Rhythm Society’s 2024 Distinguished Basic Scientist award! As director of the Leon H. Charney Division of Cardiology, Dr. Fishman is a luminary in cardiac electrophysiology. Learn more: med.nyu.edu/faculty/glenn-i-…
A huge congratulations to my PhD advisor Glenn Fishman for receiving the Distinguished Basic Scientist Award at HRS. So well deserved Glenn, you have been such a great mentor and friend as well as an outstanding scientist! @glennfishman@EPeeps@DavidParkLab1
Congratulations to Sam Jordan, a Sarnoff fellow in my lab, for delivering a fantastic talk at the Weinstein Cardiovascular Development conference in Montreal!
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (Myosin Binding Protein C mutation) and associated defects in myofilament structure and calcium handling. cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S…. Congrats to Mimi and the rest of the team!
Excited to post our work, just accepted in iScience. Led by @mimi_guo6, our team used biomaterials to control the mechanical load that iPSC-derived heart muscles work against. Both mechanical load and 3D tissue environment proved essential to observe hypertrophy linked to
