BIG STORIES IN CARDIOLOGY RESEARCH 2019 WITH CLYDE YANCY, MD, AND DONALD LLOYD-JONES, MD

Featuring: Clyde Yancy, MD, and Donald Lloyd-Jones, MD, ScM

Episode Summary

Of the thousands of studies published by Northwestern scientists in 2019, some of the most discussed came from the field of cardiology. Two Northwestern physician-scientists, Clyde Yancy, MD, and Donald Lloyd-Jones, MD, review some of these findings and share their thoughts on advances in cardiology to come in 2020.

In this episode, Clyde Yancy, MD, and Donald Lloyd-Jones, MD, ScM, discuss four Feinberg publications from the past year that have caused discussion in the media and/or made an impact in the fields of cardiology and preventive medicine. They also talk about areas that are prime for growth in their fields in the new year, including the use of artificial intelligence and epigenetics in cardiovascular disease research.
