I am a cardiology research scientist investigating the differences between physiological (“good”) and pathological (“bad”) heart growth- cardiac hypertrophy. In general, heart failure research and therapy has concentrated on identifying and inhibiting pathological processes. In contrast, my research is unique because it has focused on activating physiological pathways (elevated in the athlete’s heart) in the failing heart as a potential new strategy for the treatment of heart failure and atrial ....I am a cardiology research scientist investigating the differences between physiological (“good”) and pathological (“bad”) heart growth- cardiac hypertrophy.

I am a cardiac pharmacologist investigating new therapies for the precursors of, and preventing their transition to, heart failure. My core activities focus on factors that control cardiac hypertrophy and ventricular function, in both the absence and pres
I am an Emergency Medicine specialist and my main research interests include trauma epidemiology, injury prevention and management, pre-hospital and emergency care and health services and systems research.
I am a molecular electrophysiologist determining structure function relationships in cardiac ion channels and investigating the role of ion channel mutations in the pathogenesis of inherited arrhythmia syndromes
