Research

Research Summary:

Our lab studies the biology of myocardial infarction (heart attacks), and in particular, how the heart heals after infarction. We are interested in discovering the cells and molecules that normally regulate infarct repair and in developing new strategies to prevent the onset of heart failure after infarction. In recent years, we have become particularly interested in harnessing the potential of adult and embryonic stem cells to regenerate cardiac muscle and the coronary circulation.

Areas of Interest:

Developmental Biology, Stem Cells & Aging
