Mathis Korseberg Stokke

Mathis Korseberg Stokke is a Professor at the Institute for Experimental Medical Research (University of Oslo), leading Norway's largest translational heart research environment. He serves as Senior Consultant at the Department of Cardiology, Rikshospitalet, and directs the national research school NORHEART. His work bridges laboratory animal models with patient data to understand cardiac function and arrhythmias.

• Academic Leadership: Deputy Director of NORHEART, former Center for Heart Failure Research Director (2018-2019)
• Teaching: Organizes/teaches MED 3006, MED 3060, and developed an ECG e-learning course

Research Focus: Translational cardiac electrophysiology and arrhythmology, emphasizing heart failure mechanisms, syndecan proteoglycans, and calcium signaling pathways. His group investigates how mechanical load affects t-tubule structure and explores novel biomarkers like secretoneurin for acute dyspnea.

Publication Trends: Recent work spans

• Heart failure biomarker validation
• ECM proteoglycan dynamics
• T-tubule remodeling in disease
• Novel therapeutic targets (ADAMTS4, AKAP18δ)
• Sex-specific cardiac signaling
• High-altitude cardiac adaptation
