Todd P. Coleman received the B.S. degrees in electrical engineering (summa cum laude), as well as computer engineering (summa cum laude) from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, in 2000, along with the M.S. and Ph... more |
Francisco Contijoch |
![]() |
The Contijoch lab aims to improve evaluation of the heart and pulmonary vasculature by developing novel imaging techniques. We develop novel image acquisition, reconstruction, and analysis strategies for CT, MRI, and... more |
Adam Engler |
![]() |
The Engler lab is an interdisciplinary research group using multiple stem cells (embryonic, adult, and induced pluripotent) and model systems (mice, rats, flies, monkeys) to... more |
Andrew McCulloch |
![]() |
Our research focus is on the mechanics and electrical dynamics of the normal and diseased heart from molecular to organ scales. In spite of these successes, there remained unmet opportunities at UCSD. In 2005... more |
Elliot McVeigh |
![]() |
In the Cardiovascular Imaging Lab (CViL) we develop new scanning protocols, hardware, and image analysis methods to diagnose and treat heart disease. Using both MRI and CT, we have been successful in creating... more |
Christian Metallo |
![]() |
The Metallo Lab applies systems biology approaches to study metabolic pathways in mammalian cells, with a focus on understanding metabolic regulation in cancer cells and stem cells. Metabolism encompasses the... more |
