Emily Anne McKaige

Emily Anne McKaige is a Research Fellow (Postdoc) at the Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, where she focuses on Molecular Cardiology and Membrane Proteins research. Her work bridges genetics, cardiovascular biology, and disease mechanisms, with a specific emphasis on stroke-related pathophysiology.

Her research explores genetic determinants of cardiac function and their clinical implications. Key interests include membrane protein dynamics, cardiovascular genetics, and molecular mechanisms underlying stroke. This interdisciplinary approach integrates genomics, molecular biology, and clinical epidemiology to advance diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Her 2024 publication in the Journal of the American Heart Association exemplifies her focus on genetic epidemiology in cardiology, analyzing how atrial function genetics influence stroke susceptibility. This work underscores her contributions to biomarker discovery and cardiovascular risk modeling.
