Research/Clinical Interest
Title
Description
My lab focusses on identifying the heritable component of a wide range of cardiovascular diseases including atherosclerosis and peripheral artery disease. To this end, we utilize publicly available genome-wide genetic and bioinformatics resources in conjunction with in vitro and in vivo approaches to discover the implicated gene and the associated signaling pathway.
