Leinwand Lab
The Leinwand Lab are leaders in the molecular cardiology field. Their interdisciplinary studies close the gap between disease-causing mutations and the manifestations of heart disease. Moreover, they are pioneers in examining disease modifying factors such as biological sex, diet, exercise, and hormone status, and they specialize in detailed analyses of the motor protein myosin. Their discoveries underpinned the first ever approved drug for the genetic heart disease hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.ÌıÌı
