Andrew N. Carley

Andrew N. Carley studies how the heart processes fats and other fuel sources for energy, and how disruptions in this metabolism contribute to heart failure and pathological changes in heart structure. His work looks at specific molecules and enzymes (such as CD36, carnitine palmitoyltransferase, and acyl-CoA) that control how fatty acids are taken up, stored, and burned by heart muscle cells, particularly under stress conditions like high blood pressure or hypertrophy (enlargement of the heart). This research aims to identify potential targets for treating or preventing heart failure by correcting abnormal metabolic processes.

Publication output has been relatively steady at 1-2 papers per year for most of the past decade, with a notable increase to 4-5 publications in 2024-2025.
