Francesca Stillitano, PhD
About Me
Dr. Francesca Stillitano has a broad background in cardiovascular biology focusing on the molecular basis of cardiac arrhythmias and pathological cardiac remodeling. Her current research focuses on using both in vitro and in vivo human-based models, including human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and humanized mouse models, to understand cardiovascular disease mechanisms, evaluate cardiac toxicity and effectiveness of novel drugs, and implement precision medicine for prevention and treatment of cardiac disease. Dr. Stillitano's lab combines cellular & molecular biology, genome editing and gene therapy approaches to better understand pathological processes and develop novel therapeutic strategies.
