Selective in vitro enhancement of cardiac myosin motor function and myofilament force generation by danicamtiv prompted clinical evaluation. A short course of danicamtiv was generally well tolerated in participants with #DCM. jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.… #HFSA2025 #JACC #cvGenetics

Here are all AHFTC fellowship programs that offered spots in last 5 years, and # of fellows they matched. 13 programs trained 50% of fellows. #HFSA2025 Skewed uneven distribution. Mega centers train most of the field. Insufficient exposure to community and rural needs. Worrisome.

>25% of patients w/severe DCM have P/LP variants @GeneticCardiomy (OR 2.3) Thanks @CircAHA @DCMProject @RayHershberger @gordonshuggins @eksjordan @greg_ewald @amorrismd @tikuowens @WilsonTangMD @bhtrachtenberg @PalakShahMD @DrNancySweitzer @MWheelerMD @WilcoxHeart @stephenpanmd

We're recruiting for AHFTC Fellowship at MedStar- Georgetown. 47 OHT/65 LVAD FY2024. Nationally recognized Infiltrative CMP Program, PH, shock team, cardiogenetics. @MrinaliniKrish2 @fsheikh22 @PhilLamMd @AfariArmahN @RichaGuptaMD @miguelpinillav medstarhealth.org/education/fell…

Excited that our work was one of the Editor-in-Chief’s Top Picks From 2023! @JACCJournals

On clinical screening, 1 in 7 FDRs of patients c/DCM have newly diagnosed DCM or partial DCM phenotype @DCMProject @RayHershberger @gordonshuggins @eksjordan @greg_ewald @amorrismd @tikuowens @WilsonTangMD @bhtrachtenberg @PalakShahMD @DrNancySweitzer @MWheelerMD @WilcoxHeart

A tour de force @maferradastrong the-rheumatologist.org/article/doctor…

Close to 50% of DCM cases have an unknown cause, but there is growing evidence that most of these cases are genetic. Learn more about the genetics of DCM: dcmfoundation.org/dilated-cardio…

“And another one!” @ShazliKhanMD now presenting TWO cases of ARVC initially felt to be COVID-19 related myocarditis, demonstrating the role of genetic testing in cardiomyopathy diagnosis. #hfsa2023 @WMCCardsFellows @WestchesterMed @nymedcollege

In two weeks - Join me and my co-director @fsheikh22 in Washington, DC, for @Medstar 6th Annual Advanced Heart Failure Summit! Keynote: @MRMehraMD @fsheikh22 Register Now:  heartfailuresummit.org/registration

@CyrusHadadiMD @fsheikh22 @MRMehraMD @medstar @AfariArmahN @cjbither @RaniaKaoukis @PhilLamMD @miguelpinillav So excited to hear your talk!

@MarkHofmeyer @fsheikh22 @MRMehraMD @medstar @AfariArmahN @cjbither @RaniaKaoukis @PhilLamMD @miguelpinillav Super excited to talk about the intersection of cardiac devices and new heart failure therapies!

10/21/2023 - Register now - @fsheikh22 and I are excited to be back in person this year with @MRMehraMD for our annual @Medstar Advanced Heart Failure Summit. @AfariArmahN @cjbither @CyrusHadadiMD @RaniaKaoukis @PhilLamMD @miguelpinillav heartfailuresummit.org/Default.aspx

@MedStarWHC @CircAHA Thanks to @lamcardio @CircAHA on the Run @RayHershberger for inviting me to discuss the work of the @DCMProject. Patients & FDRs need phenotypic & genotyping screening to better characterize, intervene earlier, and develop precision medicine therapies for DCM.

#PODCAST: How routine #genetictesting could benefit patients with advanced disease from dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and their at-risk family members. Dr. @MarkHofmeyer shares insight from his DCM Precision Medicine Study published in @circAHA. Listen now! bit.ly/3sM8uSl

@mohilgarg13 @fsheikh22 @PhilLamMD @RichaGuptaMD @miguelpinillav @GTCardFellows @IMMWHC Looking forward to seeing you there!

Join me in Washington, DC, for MedStar’s 6th Annual Advanced Heart Failure Summit on October 21, 2023! @fsheikh22 @MarkHofmeyer @PhilLamMD @RichaGuptaMD @miguelpinillav @GTCardFellows @IMMWHC Register Now:  heartfailuresummit.org/registration

@DmitryAbramovMD Thanks! Stay tuned for more from the DCM Consortium!

Congratulations @MarkHofmeyer, important work

Assumptions regarding dilated cardiomyopathy genetic architecture derived from European ancestry may not apply to African ancestry; a current lack of case data limits clinical genetics care for patients of African ancestry with dilated cardiomyopathy. ja.ma/3DEyRw0
