Functional Mitral Regurgitation
My research focuses on the role anatomic perturbations of the mitral annulus play in the pathogenesis of functional mitral regurgitation. This work, which entails gross dissection and histological examination of human and bovine hearts, has led to a number of novel insights. These include the anatomic basis of pre-systolic contraction of the mitral annulus and the mechanistic role of atriogenic leaflet tethering in atrial functional mitral regurgitation.

Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device, biotechnology companies, and other outside entities to improve patient care, develop new therapies and achieve scientific breakthroughs. In order to promote an ethical and transparent environment for conducting research, providing clinical care and teaching, Mount Sinai requires that salaried faculty inform the School of their outside financial relationships.
