My
primary interests are the effects of dietary habits, particularly
n-3 and trans fatty acids, on cardiovascular health and disease. As
a cardiologist with training in epidemiology and nutrition, I use an
integrated approach to formulating research hypotheses and the
methods to address these questions. A translational approach also
allows application of clinical experiences to research questions and
of research results to patient care. To understand more fully the
public health and cardiovascular impact of diet, I study effects on
multiple cardiovascular outcomes, including coronary heart disease,
sudden death, stroke, heart failure, and atrial fibrillation. I am
also interested in potential intermediary phenotypes and risk
factors, such as heart rate, inflammation, cardiac structure and
function, and electrophysiology.
