Research Interest
Gender Differences in Cardiac Function in Health and Disease. Since 1984, more women than men have died from cardiovascular related disease. Observation has shown that the incidence of cardiovascular disease increases with the duration of menopause. Yet, fundamental questions still exist regarding relevant gender-based differences in the pathophysiology and clinical management of cardiac disease. Furthermore, even less information is available on how the duration of menopause impacts on the progression of cardiovascular disease.
