Assistant Professor of Medicine, Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine
Assistant Professor of Medicine, Department of Pharmacology
Research Focus:
The primary focus of the James C. Lo Lab is to investigate the molecular mechanisms of cardiometabolic diseases with the ultimate goal of developing novel treatments directed against them.
Assistant Professor of Cell and Developmental Biology
Research Focus:
We utilize novel imaging techniques in zebrafish genetic models to dissect the cues driving vascularization and vascular mediation of heart regeneration at the tissue and molecular level.
Professor of Immunology in Medicine (Elect), Infectious Diseases
Research Focus:
Persons living with HIV have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Our lab studies the links between HIV immune dysfunction and pathogenic mechanisms underlying cardiovascular system complications among people with HIV and receiving virally suppressive antiretroviral therapy.
Assistant Professor of Cell and Developmental Biology, Cell and Developmental Biology
Research Focus:
Using zebrafish as a model, the Cao Lab aims at dissecting how natural heart regeneration is regulated at the cellular and molecular level, and how the generalizable findings can be applied in other regenerative contexts
