Utilizing human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes, with mutations induced by CRISPR/Cas9 PEDIATRICS RESIDENCY Montefiore Medical Center gene editing, we are undertaking a multi-scale approach ranging from structural and function studies on the single myosin molecule, to the individual myofibril, to whole cells and to microengineered MEDICAL EDUCATION FELLOWSHIP Albert Einstein College of Medicine tissues. To better understand cardiomyocyte mechano-transduction, we are applying FRET sensors in critical sarcomeric and junctional proteins. We are also studying a large biobank of myocardial PEDIATRIC CARDIOLOGY FELLOWSHIP UCSF samples from patients with HCM, combining transcriptomics and metabolomics with measurements of mitochondrial function to determine the degree to which HCM is a disease of altered cardiac BOARD CERTIFICATION Pediatrics, ABP energetics. These studies will allow us to correlate findings from hiPSC-CMs with actual patient samples. Another focus of our lab has been on the molecular mechanisms of RV hypertrophy Pediatric Cardiology, ABP and its transition to RV failure, and how this differs from LV failure. I am also involved in several CLINICAL FOCUS clinical/translational projects: a multi-center clinical study to evaluate novel biomarkers for post- Pediatric Cardiology transplant lymphoproliferative disorder in pediatric solid organ transplant patients; the Pediatric Pediatric Heart Failure and Cardiac Genomics Consortium, an NIH initiative to sequence 10,000 trios for genes associated with Transplantation congenital heart disease; and a study to use immune profiling to predict adverse outcomes after HONORS & AWARDS pediatric left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation.

We are interested Stanford University in understanding how pulmonary arteries respond to injury and identify novel genetic PULMONARY VASCULAR FELLOWSHIP modifiers whose dysfunction can trigger small vessel loss and vascular remodeling in Stanford University PAH patients. In particular, we are currently focused on exploring how the Wnt signaling BOARD CERTIFICATION pathways regulate the behavior of pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAECs), smooth Internal Medicine, ABIM muscle cells (PASMCs) and pericytes in response to injury and whether mutations related Pulmonary Diseases, ABIM to these pathways can affect signaling via other pathways relevant to PAH resulting in Critical Care Medicine, ABIM development of clinical disease. The overarching goal of our work is to identify potential CLINICAL FOCUS biomarkers and drug targets that can be used in the development of novel diagnostic and Pulmonary Hypertension treatment approaches to offer patients afflicted with this devastating disease.
