معرفی
Tracey Hopkins is an Honorary Research Fellow at the School of Cardiovascular & Metabolic Health, University of Glasgow. She works within the Clinical Research Imaging Facility at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital (QEUH), contributing to studies involving cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), biomarkers of myocardial infarction, and cardiovascular outcomes in chronic disease populations.

Her research focuses on cardiovascular imaging, particularly using cardiac MRI and 7 Tesla MRI technology, to investigate myocardial infarction sequelae, ventricular remodeling, and cardiac dysfunction in patients with comorbidities like chronic kidney disease and breast cancer survivorship. She has contributed to clinical trials on interventions such as neprilysin inhibition and vitamin K supplementation.
The 15 most recent publications highlight her expertise in cardiovascular biomarkers (e.g., galectin-3, TIMP-4), advanced imaging modalities (7 Tesla MRI, cardiac MRI), and long-term cardiac outcomes across disciplines including oncology, nephrology, and interventional cardiology. Her collaborative work spans multidisciplinary teams studying heart failure, thrombosis, and electrophysiology in high-risk patient cohorts.
Tracey's technical work in magnetic resonance spectroscopy and microvascular resistance measurement has implications for diagnostic protocols and prognostic modeling in cardiovascular disease. She collaborates frequently with researchers in cardio-oncology and transplant medicine domains.
