Atrial arrhythmias and Ca2+ waves in HF: simulation and experimental studies

In this project we will develop computational models of cardiac cell and tissue in heart failure. These computational studies will be performed using experimental data acquired in Dr. John Wasserstrom's laboratory at Northwestern University. The computer simulations and model development will be carried out by Dr Yohannes Shiferaw (principal investigator), a postdoctoral research associate, and two graduate students...
