Robin M. Shaw, M.D., Ph.D.
Asst Professor In Residence
Research Interests:
Cardiac Electrophysiology, Ion Channels, Arrhythmia, Sudden Cardiac Death, Heart Failure
Summary:
The basic function of the heart is to work as a pump, circulating blood through the lungs and the rest of the body. Each heartbeat, millions of individual heart cells contract in synchrony for one overall large contraction. Improper contraction results in congestive heart failure and improper synchrony results in sudden cardiac death. My laboratory studies the basic biology of heart cell contraction and synchronous communication with a goal of developing novel treatment strategies of both heart failure and sudden cardiac death.
