New paper out! In this study, we expanded our atrial-enriched fibrosis signaling model to identify the distinct mechanisms through which estrogen and testosterone suppress profibrotic signaling. doi.org/10.1152/ajpheart.002…

Earlier today, we proudly joined the Rally for Science in Sacramento in support of the bond act SB 895 to protect vital research in California (even if federal funding is cut) and are very grateful to stand with a community committed to science and public health. @SaveScienceCA

Back from #bps2026, as always a fantastic meeting for great science and the pleasure of reconnecting with friends and colleagues. Kudos to @Fazeelat_Mazhar and @Forouzandehmehr for brilliantly representing the lab with their outstanding poster presentations!

New paper out! We developed sex-specific atrial myocyte models that reveal that female AFib patients might be more prone to delayed afterdepolarizations, and males more vulnerable to alternans, with distinct mechanisms and drug responses: doi.org/10.1113/JP289425

Happy to share my first contribution to @JPrecisionMed! Read my editorial on precision cardiac electrophysiology here: jprecisionmedicine.org/artic…

New paper out! We developed a model of fibroblast signaling that reveals how Ca²⁺-dependent pathways regulate profibrotic markers in response to atrial fibrillation-relevant stimuli

About last week.. Feeling very grateful for a fantastic time at the ISHR World Congress and the chance to experience the beauty of Japan. #ISHR2025

In these tumultuous weeks, we had a fantastic time sharing science, fears, and hopes with friends and colleagues at the UC Davis CardioVascular Symposium, the @MuscleCardiac and the @BiophysicalSoc Meetings, and the @GordonConf on Cardiac Arrhythmias. #StandUpForScience

We are excited to announce that the registration for the 2025 UC Davis Cardiovascular Symposium is now open. Whether in person or online, we hope you will join us! Register here: basicscience.ucdmc.ucdavis.e…

Thank you @GraceKMuller for being a wonderful host, the pleasure was all mine!
