    Our main area of research is cardiac electrophysiology with focus on impulse generation and propagation. We employ theoretical, computational, experimental, as well as clinical approaches to achieve better understanding and treatment of complex arrhythmias such as ventricular and atrial fibrillation. We also develop new photonic technologies to better study heart electromechanical function in vivo and in patients.
