Summary
- I am a heart failure/heart transplant cardiologist with a research and clinical background in cardiovascular genetics. I now direct the Division of Human Genetics at the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center where I continue my research efforts to discover and understand the genetics and genomics of human dilated cardiomyopathy, and facilitate genetics and genomics research and clinical practice across all specialties at the OSU Wexner Medical Center.
