Congratulations to Dr. Hena Patel, Director of the Women’s Heart Center (@hpatel824), on receiving the 2027 Preeclampsia Foundation Vision Grant Award!
A member of the @UChicagoMed Section of Cardiology and founder of our Women in Cardiology (WIC) Program, Dr. Patel is dedicated to advancing cardiovascular research and improving care for women throughout their lives.
Her research proposal, “Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction and Subclinical Myocardial Remodeling After Preeclampsia,” will investigate the potential long-term cardiovascular effects of preeclampsia in diverse populations.
This highly competitive award supports research addressing health inequities in the United States.
Please join us in celebrating Dr. Patel’s achievement and her commitment to advancing women’s heart health!

Substrate de-networking linked to greater freedom from VT/VF but more conduction system injury. Trigger-focused ablation may be considered first when PVC triggers are identifiable, reserving substrate modification for refractory/nontriggered VF jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacep… #JACCCEP

⚡️VF ablation is growing and the Purkinje–myocardial interface is ripe for research.
But can we hold VF stable long enough to map it without ischemia?
Our group @MayoClinicCV show we can in @CirculationEP. Led by the great @DrDeese99

The EP fellowship is central to our academic mission. We have expanding complex ablation volumes and bench-to-bedside research. This is the best training opportunity in academic EP. Deadline approaching. Fellows: DM me for more information. @UChicagoCardio @UChicagoMed #EPeeps.
