Nanocardiology Lab
@nanocardiology.bsky.social
The Veeraraghavan lab develops and applies light and electron microscopy approaches to understand how nanoscale structure affects the heart's rhythm in health and disease.
New #paper from the lab... Louisa Mezache out how #inflammation induced by a #viral #infection can disrupt #cardiac #nanostructure and promote #AFib.

Very cool study! I suspect we're only beginning to understand the importance of communication between myocytes and the vasculature. The more we understand the better we can intercept pathological remodeling processes.
Manning & Rivera et al. (www.jacc.org/doi/10.1016/...) show that pruning just a few capillaries in the SA node plunges the heart’s pacemaker into metabolic overdraft—slowing the rate and jacking up beat-to-beat variability. The physiological equivalent of running on fumes. @jaccjournals.bsky.social

Excited, not executed... Hopefully, that was obvious. This round goes to jet lag 🤦🏿♂️🤣🤦🏿♂️
Had the most wonderful time at @iiscbangalore at the *Collaborative Health Sciences Workshop* today! Razor sharp science in #cardiology, #neuroscience + filter coffee... Executed for the new collaborations. Thanks to Profs. Navakanta Bhat, @shivkumarmd for the invitation!
