President-elect Mayo Clinic O&C. Cardiologist. Editor of JASE & scientist - echo, valves, CAD, HF, AI. Past president of ASE; mom; likes 📚 🎼 🎶 & fast 🚘
Happy❤️to be named among the 2022 best female scientists. Top women scientists are publishing mostly in the field of medicine. I want to help the next gen! 👠🎓
New stress echo guidelines include Class of Recommendation and Level of Evidence. Outstanding work by the writing group, ASE Guidelines Committee and ASE staff Rhonda Price!

Transmitral gradient is highly influenced by heart rate and stroke volume. Our proposed novel index was superior for mitral stenosis severity assessment and identified a low-risk subset

Tip for new fellows and residents: Find a mentor who will 1. make time to meet with you, 2. prioritize your project, 3. help you network with others. Good luck and enjoy your training!
A few things politicians should know about science: 1. Association is not causation 2. Data can be selectively presented 3. Measurements are not exact 4. Scientists and journal editors can make mistakes

Send us at JASE your papers on echo in valve disease- new and evolving technology, AI, and application of echo to enhance understanding and improve pt outcome. This will be an exciting issue!
Adverse remodeling occurs as severe AS persists, with LV fibrosis, LVH, diastolic dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension, and atrial fib. Plus risk of sudden death
Sixty years ago this month - October 1963 - US cardiologist Dr Robert Bruce published a paper detailing his efforts to devise a multi-stage treadmill test
Little did he know this would go on to become the Bruce protocol the most widely used for exercise testing

"Another limitation is that complete matching for age was not possible; patients with HFpEF were older."
Today I learned large echo datasets do not have patients with normal EF and filling pressures above 70 years of age.
