I am the Program Director for the Interventional Caridology Fellowship Program at the Brigham and Women's Hospital/Harvard Medicla School. My clinical and research interests converge at the junction of interventional and critical care cardiology. I secured grant funding for a single center trial named ERGO-CATH. In ERGO-CATH we are quantifying the ergonomic strain on cath lab operators wearing traditional lead versus a novel radiation safety device (RAMPART inc). I recently earned an AHA grant through which I am investigating mechanisms to provide more timely care for patients wtih cardiogenic shock. Additionally, I am currently leading an AHA Scientific Statement focused on Complications in Cardiogneic Shock. I aim to conduct observational investigations that inform the design of clinical trials for critically ill patients.
