Vascular And Genetics Program
The CVRTI Vascular and Genetics Program investigates how genetic, molecular, and vascular factors contribute to cardiovascular disease. Using population data, cellular and animal models, and interdisciplinary approaches that integrate medicine, engineering, and bioscience, the program studies mechanisms of arrhythmia, vascular dysfunction, and cardiovascular complications associated with aging, obesity, and chronic kidney disease. The overarching goal is to improve understanding of cardiovascular disease mechanisms and advance precision and therapeutic strategies.

Exploring the Genetics of ARVC Cardiomyopathy
Read moreArrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a heart condition that can be deadly but is, thankfully, quite rare. This condition involves the heart muscle being replaced by fatty and fibrous…

Current Strategies for Managing ARVC Cardiomyopathy
Read moreArrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), also known as arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) or arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVC), is a heart condition that tends to be rare. The condition is characterized by some…

Recognizing Early Signs of ARVC Cardiomyopathy
Read moreArrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a rare but serious heart condition characterized by the gradual replacement of the heart’s muscle tissue with fatty or fibrous tissue. This process weakens…
