Cardiac Proteomics Laboratory
Heads of laboratory:
Research interests include the pathophysiology of ischaemic myocardial injury and inherited cardiovascular disease, particularly diseases of the aorta and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Clinical research studies have quantified predictors of infarct size for individual patients and developed a model for early risk stratification of individual patients with acute infarcts. Research conducted in this laboratory has evolved from a physiological platform to a molecular approach through proteomics. Recent work has achieved international recognition through publications, presentations at American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology meetings and invitation of a PhD student for a post-doctoral position at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
