This award funds a research project studying the effects of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, using cardiac imaging techniques. It supports Dr. Jenifer Michelle Brown's career development as an independent physician-scientist.
Description
Research project involving mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists and their effects on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The research aims to understand mechanisms, evaluate relationships with cardiac structure and function, and investigate the effects of MR antagonists using physiologic imaging techniques. Part of a career development plan for Dr. Brown to become an independent physician-scientist.
