@ahmedawadmd AMAZING!!!!

YOUR BOY IS GOING TO BE A YALE TRAINED CARDIOTHORACIC SURGEON!!!!

So incredibly excited to have matched into CCF neurosurgery and continue working with my amazing network of mentors. #match2026 #neurosurgery

We hope you enjoy reading our manuscript - a collaborative effort from all specialties involved in the care of CABG patients.

The Svensson-Gillinov Scholarship in Cardiothoracic Surgery is now OPEN. Apply before March 1st, and don't forget you MUST also apply on VSLO. 2 outstanding students will be selected & notified by March 31st and announced at @AATSHQ 2026. Apply here: forms.gle/AVJvM7q4F58BHA…

Redo-commando after commando success breakdown🎯 : ▶️Preserve annular integrity during explant ▶️Complete trigonal debridement ▶️Careful valve sizing = no suture line tension ▶️ 💎 pericardial patch ▶️Pledget those corners = no post-op bleeding @CleClinicHVTI @NikaSamadzadeh

“Always be prepared for invasion.” In native aortic valve endocarditis, invasive disease was present in 40% yet preop TEE/CT missed it in >50%. Allografts showed superior freedom from reop at 5y vs with AVR+patch. @HElgharablyMD @EricRoselliMD annalsthoracicsurgery.org/article/S0003-…

Amazing work done by superstars at HVTI @mahmoudshneikat @ahmedawadmd !!

Thanks so much to my first PI in medical school Dr. @FeixiongCheng for introducing me to the world of AI + medicine! lerner.ccf.org/news/article/?…

Check out my first machine learning project from MS1 of medical school! AI meets precision medicine meets cardio-oncology

This is a big deal. Frequentist statistics have done a lot of damage to medical science. People rely on P values without really understanding what they mean. Many faulty conclusions have been made because of them. Once you understand Bayes methods, you’ll never rely on frequent tests again. Bayes methods are completely aligned with clinical thinking and should be the standard methodology used for statistical analysis in clinical research.

All smiles from @williamcfrankel as he shares one of his complex mitral valve repairs at #Mitral2025 @AATSHQ

We just published a model that does automated data extraction from Cardiac MRI reports. Let AI help make chart reviewing easier and the data collection process faster. Thank you Drs. @DebbieKwonMD & Chen for your mentorship on this project! doi.org/10.1016/j.jocm…

Had a great #SUO2025 meeting in AZ! Parenchymal volume analysis + degree of contrast enhancement on CT provides the most accurate prediction of new-baseline GFR after nephroureterectomy. Such predictive accuracy may help guide timing of systemic chemotherapy in UTUC patients

Amazing performance by our CAD team at the 11th international coronary congress @ISCAScoronary in NYC! Happy to have presented one of our two posters alongside the amazing @ahmedawadmd! Proud of the team and the work we’re doing!

ICC 2025 was amazing!! Gave my oral podium and e-poster presentations, get great feedback and insightful comments, cheered on our great team @Alaraj_Rami1 and met leading coronary experts!! #Cardiacsurgery #CABG #ISCAS #ICC2025

Also honored to show work w/ longtime mentors and colleagues Chad Klochko MD and Steve Soliman DO on novel work using radiomics on muscle ultrasound to predict insulin resistance! We believe that this could expand to less invasive and easier-to-access screening for metabolic disorders (instead of a needle now you get POCUS) We show that you can take a simple logistic regression classifier, train it on radiomics from deltoid US in a messy retrospective dataset to predict T2DM and that same model will predict insulin resistance very well in patients from a completely different institution! #RSNA25

Honored to present our work using machine learning to predict right ventricular failure after LVAD implantation at #AHA25! Grateful to @ReinaTonegawa, @BoXuMD, and @FeixiongCheng for their guidance. Exciting step toward #PersonalizedMedicine @CCFcards @CleClinicHVTI @CleClinicMD

Computer programming can be so helpful for research. My 10th semester teaching a programming class, with the Medical Research Programming elective being offered for the 3rd time at @CWRUSOM Thank you to all my students, TAs, and faculty (Drs. Nowacki & @Neil_Mehta) #MedEd

Spotted in action (for a grand total of 3 seconds😁) during the rapid oral presentations!
