Douglas P. Zipes studies the electrical activity of the heart, focusing on how abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias) arise and how they can be treated. His work spans conditions like atrial fibrillation and long QT syndrome, treatments such as implantable defibrillators and catheter ablation, and the underlying biology of the ion channels that control the heartbeat. He also examines how factors like exercise affect patients with inherited heart conditions.
