MISSION STATEMENT

The Lindner Lab at the Robert M. Berne Cardiovascular Research Center operates at the intersections of non-invasive imaging, cardiovascular physiology, and cell biology. The laboratory comprises a multidisciplinary team of investigators with expertise in vascular biology, non-invasive imaging, microvascular physiology, and acoustic physics. This combination of skills has allowed us to develop novel methods for molecular imaging, perfusion imaging, and cardiovascular functional imaging to understand disease pathophysiology and treatment effects better. We have used non-invasive imaging to discover new therapeutic targets and develop novel diagnostic algorithms to improve patient care. Specific areas of research include a) the application of molecular imaging techniques to characterize pathophysiology and assess therapy for atherosclerotic, vascular, and valvular disease; b) coronary and peripheral microvascular function in health and disease; d) development of ultrasound-based therapies based on site-targeted gene or drug delivery, and vascular bioeffects of cavitation.

PRIMARY RESEARCH GOALS

  1. To develop novel non-invasive imaging tools
  2. To use advanced cardiovascular imaging, including molecular imaging, to characterize pathobiology and develop novel therapeutic
  3. To improve health care through ultrasound-based therapeutics
