Caitlin C. O'Meara, PhD is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physiology at the Medical College of Wisconsin and a member of the Cardiovascular Research Center. Her research program focuses on understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying cardiac regeneration and repair following injury. Dr. O'Meara's research interests center on cardiac regeneration mechanisms, with particular focus on: Cardiomyocyte proliferation and cell cycle regulation IL-4/IL-13 signaling pathways in cardiac repair Cardiac macrophage function in regeneration Genetic regulation of heart function Cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction Her most recent publications (2023-2025) demonstrate continued innovation in methodologies for measuring cardiomyocyte division and understanding the complex interplay between immune signaling and cardiac repair mechanisms. The research shows a clear trajectory toward translating basic findings into potential therapeutic approaches for heart disease. Notable scientific contributions include: Elucidating the role of IL-13 in promoting functional recovery after myocardial infarction Demonstrating that Runx1 influences but is not essential for cardiomyocyte cell-cycle activation Developing novel methods for quantifying cardiomyocyte cell division Revealing the adverse cardiac effects of IL4Rα blockade Dr. O'Meara maintains an active research program with consistent publication output, demonstrating strong mentorship through numerous collaborative projects and contributing significantly to the understanding of cardiac regeneration mechanisms. Her work bridges basic science and potential clinical applications for improving cardiac outcomes after injury.

• Rheumatology
• Inflammatory Arthritis
• Cardiovascular Complications in Autoimmune Diseases
• +۱ مورد دیگر

Mette Bjørndal Axelsen serves as a Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Clinical Medicine at the University of Copenhagen, specializing in Rheumatology within Internal Medicine. Her clinical and research activities are based at Copenhagen University Hospital (Region H), with locations in Glostrup and Copenhagen N, where she investigates inflammatory arthritis complications and diagnostic imaging methodologies. Her research centers on Rheumatology and Inflammatory Arthritis, with specific expertise in Cardiovascular Complications arising from autoimmune diseases and advanced Musculoskeletal Imaging techniques. She examines how chronic inflammation impacts cardiac structure/function in arthritis patients and evaluates the reliability of MRI-based metrics for joint inflammation assessment, bridging clinical practice with diagnostic innovation. Recent publications reveal a strong focus on interdisciplinary collaboration, particularly in cardiovascular-rheumatology interfaces and imaging reproducibility. Her 2024 study in the European Heart Journal explores cardiac dysfunction in inflammatory arthritis cohorts, while her 2023 Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases abstract challenges MRI-based synovitis grading methods, highlighting critical gaps in current diagnostic protocols. Dr. Axelsen operates within multi-institutional research networks, evidenced by co-authorship with cardiology and radiology specialists across Danish medical centers. Her work through initiatives like the ARTCADIA Study demonstrates active engagement in national collaborative frameworks addressing systemic manifestations of autoimmune disorders.

Marc Pelletier, MD, MSc, serves as Division Chief of Cardiac Surgery at Yale School of Medicine and Physician-in-Chief of Cardiac Surgery for Yale New Haven Health System. He leads a multidisciplinary surgical team specializing in advanced cardiac interventions, with particular expertise in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), minimally invasive valve surgery, aortic root reconstruction, and heart failure surgery. His clinical practice emphasizes team-based approaches integrating anesthesiology, perfusion technology, and AI-driven surgical innovations. Dr. Pelletier holds an MD from Dalhousie University (1994) and completed prior academic appointments at Stanford University (Assistant Professor), Harvard Medical School (Surgical Director of TAVR), and Case Western Reserve University (Jay L. Ankeney Professor). He currently chairs the 2026 Society of Thoracic Surgeons Annual Meeting program committee. His research focuses on improving cardiac surgical outcomes through innovations in minimally invasive techniques, hybrid revascularization, and postoperative recovery protocols. Recent work explores diaphragm pacing for ventilator weaning, biomarker applications in cardiac risk stratification, and advanced imaging for TAVR optimization. Publications demonstrate consistent focus on translating clinical data into improved patient management strategies. Leadership Roles : Program Chair, Society of Thoracic Surgeons 2026 Annual Meeting Endowed Professorship : Jay L. Ankeney Professorship in Cardiothoracic Surgery (Case Western Reserve University) Dr. Pelletier leads Yale's cardiac surgery innovation initiatives, including robotic surgery programs and AI integration for surgical decision support. His team collaborates across cardiology, biomedical engineering, and outcomes research divisions to develop next-generation cardiac therapies.
