Research summaryCardiovascular medicine
Clinical
  • Clinical cardiology
  • Cardiovascular imaging – echocardiography, cardiac CT, and cardiac MRI

Research

I am interested in many aspects of cardiovascular medicine, especially valvular heart disease, but also ischaemic heart disease, cardiomyopathies, and atrial fibrillation.

To tackle these, I, along with collaborators, use basic science techniques in molecular biology and genomics, population based approaches, and advanced phenotyping techniques using echocardiography, cardiac CT, and cardiac MRI. We have started running clinical trials in-house, with the aim of developing therapies for testing in wider clinical settings.

Current research projects

The PressUre reduction in Mild-to-moderate Aortic Stenosis (PUMAS) study
