Thomas J. Hund studies the molecular and electrical processes that control heart rhythm and how these go wrong in disease, including heart failure, arrhythmia, and cardiac remodeling after injury such as heart attacks. His work combines laboratory studies of ion channels and structural proteins (like spectrin) with computer modeling of heart electrical activity to understand and potentially treat arrhythmias. Prospective students would work at the intersection of cardiac cell biology, electrophysiology, and computational modeling.
