Excited to share that four of our abstracts have been accepted for presentation at @crfheart 2026!

I had the opportunity to mentor and guide a group of students through CTSAI, from developing the research question to bringing the project to completion. Proud to see their hard work reach this stage.

Looking forward to sharing our work and connecting with the cardiovascular community in San Diego!

That’s a wrap on the #ASPC Training Academy. I came believing the best cardiovascular care happens when prevention, intervention, and surgery work as one Heart Team. Grateful to learn from leaders in preventive cardiology and carry that perspective into my journey. #CardioTwitter #teamwork #CTSurgery @ASPCardio @NMCardioVasc @NM_Lung

[Dr.Khan @DrBilal_khan]

The best heart operation is the one a patient never needs again!

As a cardiothoracic surgery trainee, I’m joining the 2026 @ASPCardio Training Academy to learn prevention from the ground up — because the surgeons I want to become think years before the incision, not just during it and prevent redo surgeries!

Grateful to stand alongside 49 remarkable colleagues.

An unforgettable ISMICS 2026 in Miami.

Grateful to be selected as an ISMICS-Medtronic Trainee Scholar, and honored to deliver an oral presentation in the Next generation thoracic surgery Session: "RALT: A Meta-Analysis of Early Outcomes in Minimally Invasive Transplant Surgery."

The hands-on training -aortic, mitral, and tricuspid valve repair, minimally invasive cannulation, and robotic console skills — taught by surgeons defining the field:
Gry Dahle, Bob Kiaii, Danny Ramzy, Niv Ad, Nikolaos Bonaros, @tomcnguyen Tomcnguyen, @Arrow_12 and Sahin Senay!

The future of cardiothoracic surgery is minimally invasive!
