Research

Our laboratory focuses on the development and application of novel technologies to understand cardiac arrhythmia and other cardiovascular related diseases using animal models. Specifically, we are interested in developing atrial fibrillation models, cardiac failure models, myocardial infarction models, and other cardiovascular disease animal models. We are also interested in developing and testing medical devices and drugs through pre-clinical studies.

I received my PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Iowa State University and then completed post-doctoral fellowships at Yale School of Medicine and Harvard Medical School. Previously I was a research scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and worked for several years with medical device companies.
