Zhi-Dong Ge, MD, PhD, is a Research Associate Professor in the Department of Pediatrics at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine, affiliated with Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago. His work bridges cardiovascular pathophysiology and immunology, with a focus on pediatric heart conditions, macrophage-driven inflammatory responses, and regenerative therapies.
Dr. Ge's research explores how immune cell metabolism influences cardiac repair and disease progression. Key areas include:
- Metabolic crosstalk between myeloid cells and stem cells in heart failure
- Efferocytosis-mediated tissue regeneration mechanisms
- Mechanosensitive immune pathways in cardiac injury
- Leukocyte-lymphatic interactions in inflammation resolution
His recent publications (2025) collectively emphasize immunometabolic dysregulation in cardiac pathologies, using techniques ranging from single-cell genomics to preclinical models of heart disease.
Awards and Grants:
- Project Bubaloo (2025): Single-nucleus RNA sequencing in ventricular failure
- Neonatal stem cell therapy for cardiac fibrosis (2023)
- Cardio-omentopexy mechanisms in heart failure (2021)
- LncRNA H19 targeting in ischemic hearts (2021)
