House Staff

I am interested in translational and biomedical engineering approaches to studying cardiovascular function and end stage heart failure. My current work is focused on using Tissue Engineered Blood Vessels (TEBVs) to model radiation related injury to the cardiovascular function. This is working with Dr Dawn Bowles and Dr George Truskey. Additional focus includes ex-vivo modification of donor hearts to improve cardiac transplantation outcomes working with Dr Carmelo Milano

My clinical research is focused on clinical outcomes after adult cardiac surgery with a focus on end stage surgical heart failure.
