Excited to see our review out! Thank you to @JAMA_current and my co-authors. We hope this helps anyone who takes care of HF patients on when to refer for advanced therapy eval and what happens after heart transplant.

#JAMAReview: Among adults undergoing #HeartTransplant, contemporary survival is high, but long-term outcomes depend on surveillance for rejection and #cardiac allograft #vasculopathy and careful management of #immunosuppression-related complications.

🫀 What if the same histologic grade of heart transplant rejection does not represent the same disease?

Our new study in @NatureCVR used single-cell spatial transcriptomics in serial cardiac allograft biopsies to answer this question.

And hitting the ground running already in 2025! What a great team to work with. @VUMCTransplant @HasanSiddiqi5 @menachem_j @aniket_rali @ISHLT

Extraordinary year for Vanderbilt Heart. 174 heart transplants (108 DBD/66 DCD). Over 160,000 miles traveled. Spanning 46 states, Puerto Rico, and Canada. Nearly 1900 hours invested in recoveries. 75+ LVADs. Incredible teamwork. Grateful to our patients/donors. Look forward to 2025 - a year without machines?

What a terribly disappointing take. We owe it to our patients to ADVOCATE for them!

It’s going to be difficult in the coming weeks but I think clinicians should try hard to stay apolitical in the public sphere. We owe it to our patients.

Thrilled to receive an @nih_nhlbi K23 Award to study CAV after heart transplantation using multiomics approaches! Couldn’t have done it without amazing mentorship! #RaviShah @JaneFreedmanMD @SchlendorfKelly @JeffRathmell @NR_Tucker @CardioOncology #YuShyr
