I am a cardiovascular researcher investigating the mechanisms driving atherosclerosis and other arterial diseases. My work focuses on the role of endothelial and smooth muscle cells in vascular disease, particularly how genetic and mechanical factors influence their function. I have contributed to pioneering studies, including single-cell transcriptomic screenings of G protein-coupled receptors in the vascular system and lineage-tracing experiments in atherosclerosis. My research also explores how mechanical forces, such as shear stress and stretch, regulate vascular cell phenotypes. Using genomics, transcriptomics, functional assays, and experimental models, my goal is to identify new therapeutic targets to mitigate arterial disease progression and improve clinical outcomes.
