Shanna Hamilton studies how the heart's electrical activity and calcium signaling go wrong in inherited and acquired heart rhythm disorders, focusing on ion channels, calcium-handling proteins, and mitochondrial contributions to disease. This work aims to explain how genetic mutations and cellular stress lead to arrhythmias and cardiomyopathies, with an eye toward identifying potential drug targets. Research draws on cellular and animal models of conditions such as catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
