Research Interest
Research focus is cardiovascular disease. It is not just a global problem, but likely a personal one, as it doesn't just happen in someone else's family, but often within your own. Despite current treatments, patients with cardiovascular disease have a considerable residual risk of experiencing a clinical event (such as a heart attack or stroke). A challenge now is to develop strategies to prevent these remaining cardiovascular events.
