Our research focuses on molecular mechanisms and genetics regulating development of cardiac fibrosis, heart failure and sudden cardiac death. We study cardiac samples from victims of sudden cardiac death (SCD) to identify genetic factors regulating development of cardiac fibrosis and study the clinical characteristics of mutation carrier family members in order to find applicable clinical markers which can be used to identify subjects at risk for SCD. We will then utilize cell models and genetically engineered mice to study the role of the factors identified in regulating cardiac fibrosis. The Research Unit of Biomedicine offers a lively research environment with strong experience in Ph.D. training, fully equipped up-to-date laboratory space and equipment for physiological analyses of cardiac structure and function.
