📣🎉 Exciting news! Our lab’s new paper in #CirculationHeartFailure reports a gene therapy for arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. Restoring connexin-43 improves electrical & mechanical coupling, rescues disease & extends survival across severe ACM genotypes. ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…

@kallikourdis Thank you so much!!

@georgedemirakos @JingZhang_UCSD @heartonbeat @EricAdler17 Please DM me & I can connect you.

@FarahSheikhLab @JingZhang_UCSD @heartonbeat @EricAdler17 I have arvc but I live in Canada. Can I be part of the trial?

In the midst of #BCVS23, got the mind blowing news of FDA approval of a therapy that we developed in the lab!! Grateful to all Sheikh lab members (past & present) & humbled by the efforts to get to this point! Grateful to LEXEO team to get us to this point! #ARVC
