My current work centers on investigating the role of the cardiac extracellular matrix as a function of cardiogenesis and maturation, and it's potential toward developing an in vitro platform for therapeutic applications. We are currently exploring the mechanotransductive and integrin-mediated signaling effects on genetic regulation of cardiac differentiation. Additional projects include investigating intra-cellular signaling mediated by specific integrin binding domains, and re-cellularizing perfusion decellularized hearts.
