What a great, fun opportunity to write a review with #mentors instrumental to my #career in #cardiology! Such an important topic and obviously more research is sorely needed! #ACCFIT @EricAdler17 @kofi_larry @LisaLemond @MichelaBraMD
New #AdvancesinHF review from @QuanBuiMD and colleagues: Psychosocial determinants are emphasized in advanced heart failure, but evaluation remains inconsistent given current state of evidence @UCSDHealth @EricAdler17 #AHAJournals | ow.ly/tMvy30oYYqn
Some really great early career events at @HFSA ASM this year! And free lunch in the #PIT lounges on Saturday and Sunday?? @EdanZitelny @SpencerCarter55 @AntoinetteBirs @EricAdler17 @UreyTony @DrHilaryShapiro @NealDixit @UCSDCardFellows
Heading to @HFSA ASM this weekend? 🫀
Don’t miss the Early Career events in the PIT Lounge! Come connect with mentors, meet leaders in the HF field, and build your network!
See you in PHX! 🌵🏜️ @JTThibs @JCardFail @JCFINT @CardioNerds

We are proud to announce our new #15 ranking for Cardiology, Heart and Vascular Surgery by the US News and World Report.
UC San Diego Health is also again ranked #1 in San Diego, and as a top 20 hospital in the nation as part of the Honor Roll.

Genetic testing is reshaping how we diagnose and manage cardiomyopathies but when should you order it? How do you counsel patients? What changes in management?
If you're a trainee or early-career clinician, this HFSA Mentoring Webinar will help you build confidence in applying genetics to real-world practice.
Free registration for all heart failure providers.

Tomorrow at #PCCS26:
A curated faculty of national leaders advancing #precisioncardiology — from RNA biology to clinical decision-making. Excited to bring this group together in La Jolla and virtually. #cardiotwitter

Despite guideline recommendations, #genetictesting remains profoundly underutilized in #cardiomyopathy, reaching only ~1% of patients in this national #Epic Cosmos analysis of 1.7 million individuals. The gaps we identified suggest that it is an #implementation problem.

We looked at #LVAD outcomes through a #genetics lens. In our study, patients with pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants had a higher risk of early #RVfailure, independent of ischemic or nonischemic etiology. #GeneticTesting may inform perioperative risk. Led by @_ESilver !

Indications for #cardiogenetic testing are increasing, but are #cardiologists ready? In our @ACCinTouch survey, most use testing, but lack confidence in ordering/interpreting. Barriers include cost, counselor access and training gaps. @CardioGenomicTA

Happy to share our recent #qualitative study that highlights key patient-centered priorities to guide implementation of #genetictesting in #cardiology! Thank you to @JCFINT for the opportunity! @GeneticCardiomy @CardioGenomicTA @UCSDCardFellows
Our 3rd @JCFINT publication is now in press 💥
Thanks to @QuanBuiMD @UCSDCardiology for this patient-centered, qualitative work—another example of the intersections we are 🎯 with @JCFINT, especially from early career investigators!

The cuts by the federal government to cancer research and cancer prevention have been astronomical. This cannot be overstated. Medicine and science are being decimated and doctors are being asked to do more with infinitely less resources. It’s unsustainable and will lead to so many unnecessary deaths. #CancerTreatment #cancerresearch #NIH #Healthcare #USPSTF #CancerScreening
Honored to lead a webinar on “#GeneTherapy for #Cardiomyopathy: Practical Considerations for #Patients,” discussing how these innovative therapies are shaping the future. Thanks to @GeneticCardiomy for hosting this important conversation! @UCSDCardiology youtu.be/Zdg-n8HvR3Y?si=Q3Hh…

There is already a major projected physician shortage in the US.
Capping loans at 200K will only work if you lower medical school costs. Otherwise we will admit the only the wealthy.
I graduated med school in 2012 with 300k in loans.
I was very fortunate to attend my in-state public medical school in Iowa. I took out the max loans available 22 years ago ($38,500/yr) and lived on Ramen. Under the new legislation, the $50K/yr cap wouldn’t cover estimated expenses of $58,541. 1/4 thehill.com/homenews/educati…

Proposed #NIH funding cuts could put life-saving medical research at risk, impacting cancer treatment, neuroscience and more. @DrAlexKhalessi, MD, #UCSDHealth, explains how these changes could weaken research, drive scientists away and slow innovation.
