Brief Summary:
Major areas of interest are in genetic and acquired heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias), acute and chronic coronary heart disease, prevention of sudden cardiac death, clinical trials involving drugs and devices (ICD and CRT), and consultant to the FDA for drugs used in the prevention and treatment of heart disease.
Major scientific accomplishments involve the study of mechanical and electrical risk factors in coronary heart disease, investigations into lipid and clotting factors that contribute to coronary disease, clinical trials involving the implanted defibrillator and resynchronization therapy in high-risk coronary patients, electrocardiology, phenotype/genotype investigations of the inherited long QT syndrome, and studies of drug-induced ventricular repolarization and heart rhythm disorders.
