Great to see UI Health University of Illinois College of Medicine cardiology fellows, nurses, and pharmacists in action at #ACC24

Board review Jeopardy with the new chief fellows

Congratulations to our 2023 graduates, Yogesh Jonna, Owais Abdul-Kafi, MD 🫀, and Alex Kudinov. Thank you for three years of outstanding effort and commitment as clinicians, colleagues, and future leaders in cardiology - the future is very bright!

Overjoyed at the awesome learning and networking experience I gained from attending and participating in the poster competition @MidwestACC Women in Cardiology conference. No offence to our male counterparts, but was also refreshing to see more dresses and frills in cardiology😄

Fellows Ro-Kaye Simmonds,MD.💜 Anish Shah Michael Hill representing UIC at the IllinoisACC #ACCFIT Poster Presentation Meeting!

Has your program had conversations with fellows about personal finance? Full house for a timely discussion with Khalil Ibrahim ... two weeks ahead of tax day!

Thanks to the Darbar Lab at UIC, Brandon Chalazan David Tofovic, M.D. Anish Shah, the University of Illinois - Department of Medicine Cardiology T32, and AHA Science for the postdoctoral funding to continue this work. Looking forward to next steps of connecting CM gene variants to clinical outcomes. UIC Cardio Fellows

In a cohort of 305 AA/HL patients with AF who underwent whole exome sequencing, 3.9% carried LP/P variants in genes with definitive/strong association to HCM or DCM. Patients with LP/P variants had lower rates of HTN (58% vs 85%) and higher rates of history of CHF (75% vs 37%).

Fantastic, thought-provoking session today on AF in Understudied Groups - thrilled to share our work on the prevalence of disease-associated cardiomyopathy gene variants in ethnic minorities with AF. #ACC23

A bit late but we had an outstanding turnout for our second meeting of the Chicagoland Society of Echocardiography with ~80 attendees. Thanks to Jeremy Slivnick, Madeline Jankowski, Drs Oktay & Kansal for outstanding talks on strain. And thanks to our sponsors Visura & Bracco! #EchoFirst
