An outstanding session of the 2025 American Heart Association Scientific Sessions on "The questions to be addressed in Heart Failure research in the next 10 years". Leaders of various fields discuss where research is going.

A new paradigm for ion channel regulation!
Geoffrey S. Pitt @geoffrey_pitt & team @WeillCornell@WCM_CVTI reveal FGF13 regulates cardiac sodium channels (no binding required) by affecting membrane cholesterol: jci.org/articles/view/…
The figure shows cholesterol depletion reduces Nav1.5 fluorescence signal at intercalated discs in myocytes.
#InDepth review explores the role of calcium in the heart, therapeutic targets for heart failure and arrhythmias, current and investigational therapies, challenges, and future directions for treatment. ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.11…
Congrats @AniNalbandian1 for fellow-to-faculty transition as a critical care cardiologist at Columbia, after an inaugural 1-yr advanced critical care fellowship. Welcome to this year's fellow, Ari Miller! Interested future cardiology fellows, see:

@SMarxLab
Today @lab_ferrari and @ColumbiaSurgery celebrate PGYLab general surgery resident Dov Levine for graduating Columbia’s PhD program! Well done Doctor/Doctor ! 🥳🍾🥂now back to clinical work. Thanks @DavidKalfaMD and @JuliePhillippi
Congratulations to our 🌟 graduating fellows @EDrigginMD and #MichaelBohnen on their fantastic grand rounds presentations this morning, highlighting their T32 research projects. We are so proud of them!
Ever wonder why d-TGA or DORV occurs? It’s all about under-rotation of the outflow tract (OFT). As shown in our recent paper in Circulation, the aortic valve (red arrowhead) has to rotate to 6o’clock in the OFT where it meets the LVOT. If the OFT doesn’t rotate, the pulmonic valve (blue arrowhead) remains at 6 o’clock, leading to incorrect hook up with the LVOT (dTGA). Everything in between leads to DORV. ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…#cardiotwitter
