Research interests

Member: Cardiac

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a disorder of the rhythm of the heart's upper chambers. This disease affects ~1% of the general population, and decreases their life expectancy. My research aims to improve our understanding of the electrophysiological and molecular mechanisms of AF, in the hope that this will lead to more effective treatments.

Research: Human atrial fibrillation
