WCMM Clinical Researcher: Nuclear Medicine Imaging Our research Positron emission tomography (PET) is a nuclear medicine imaging technique that depicts the spatial distribution of metabolic or biochemical activity in the body. It is most often combined with a computed tomography (CT) to obtain anatomic images. PET-CT is the fastest growing imaging modality with increasing use in different clinical

WCMM Clinical Researcher | Molecular Epidemiology & Cardiology Our research Heart disease remains the leading cause of death globally. Major transitions in the spectrum of heart disease have occurred over time while the end-result, failure of the human heart to maintain sufficient output of blood for the demands of the body, referred to as heart failure, remains a common condition with high mortal

WCMM Clinical Researcher | Vessel Wall Biology Our research Pulmonary hypertension (PH), high blood pressure in the lung, is a devastating condition where no curative treatment is available. It can be idiopathic (of unknown cause) or associated with other conditions. In children, PH associated with congenital heart disease is one of the most common types. Ongoing projects in the group are aimed a

WCMM Clinical Researcher | Hematopoietic & Immune Development Our research Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is often considered a last treatment resort for a number of serious diseases, including malignancies. Prior to HCT, high doses of chemotherapy are administered to the patients in means to eliminate the underlying malignancy such as leukemia. Also, it aims to create space for donor he

WCMM Clinical Researcher | Infection Medicine Our research My research group studies the airway microbiome and respiratory tract infections in lung transplant recipients and patients with the genetic disorder cystic fibrosis (CF). Both groups of patients have an altered airway microbiome due to the underlying disease and frequent antibiotic treatments. Acute and chronic airway infections are commo

WCMM Clinical Researcher | Cardiovascular Research Our research The core my groups research is to bridge the surprisingly under-explored gap between the “omics” of epidemiology (e.g., genomics, metabolomics, proteomics and target biomarkers) and biological and clinical function. Thus, a major component of my research aims to enhance the understanding of causes to progressing diabetes and cardiovas

WCMM Clinical Researcher | Pediatric Rheumatology Our research Can children get rheumatic joint disease? Is it a life-long disease? Does my child really need all these drugs?! These are the questions we hear every week when meeting families to children with newly diagnosed inflammatory joint disease. To get a chronic disease will have a major impact on your day-to-day life and suddenly you are dif
