Ever wonder why d-TGA or DORV occurs? It’s all about under-rotation of the outflow tract (OFT). As shown in our recent paper in Circulation, the aortic valve (red arrowhead) has to rotate to 6o’clock in the OFT where it meets the LVOT. If the OFT doesn’t rotate, the pulmonic valve (blue arrowhead) remains at 6 o’clock, leading to incorrect hook up with the LVOT (dTGA). Everything in between leads to DORV. https://t.co/goPKUhpJh7 #cardiotwitter
Thrilled to help launch the NIH Blueprint Coordination Center for Interoception Research (BPCCIR) with @KhalsaLab (UCLA), @ruimcosta (Allen Institute), @andermann_mark (Harvard/BIDMC) & @lab_xin
(UCSF), and our broader team. We will build a collaborative community and advance the science of brain–body communication. Appreciate the NIH's vision for interoception science.
Congratulations to Dr. Priscilla Hsue on securing a $6.3 million NHLBI grant! The funding will support a multicenter trial investigating how GLP-1 therapies may reduce inflammation and cardiovascular disease risk in people living with HIV. Learn more here https://t.co/vaWzs24Zt4
A huge CONGRATULATIONS to Olujimi Ajijola on receiving his new NIH R01, "Towards Ensuring Longterm Safety & Mechanisms of Clinical Cardioneural Ablation (CNA)." The objective of the proposal is to study residual cardiac neural regulation following CNA in porcine and human hearts.👏🥂🍾UCLA EP Exceptional Science

A artificial-intelligence tool dubbed Raygun can miniaturize or supersize a natural protein without disrupting the protein’s shape or ability to function

A big CONGRATS to Peter Hanna on receiving his NIH NHLBI K08 award, "Evaluating cardiac neural control in atrial fibrillation". His work will study the role of cardiac ganglionated plexuses in AF in human tissues and in a porcine model of AF. 👏🍾 UCLA EP Exceptional Science @PeterHannaMD@DOM_UCLA@UCLAHealth
So proud to see our very own Ramkumar Venkateswaran receiving his award from the Greater Canejo Valley Chamber of Commerce 40 Under Forty Gala Event! UCLA-EP Uncompromising and Exceptional! @DOM_UCLA@UCLAHealth
Proud to announce Dr. David S. Park’s appointment as the new section chief of electrophysiology in the UCLA Division of Cardiology. Dr. Park brings exceptional leadership and research expertise as well vision for advancing arrhythmia care. Learn more: https://t.co/4fd7BT0H52
