Research summary

Vidu Garg's research focuses on the genetic and molecular causes of congenital heart disease, including malformations of the aortic valve and heart outflow tract. The work combines human genetic sequencing (exome/genome studies of pediatric cardiac patients) with mouse models and stem-cell-based approaches to understand how specific genes and gene variants disrupt normal heart development. The group also studies clinical and behavioral outcomes for patients with congenital heart disease, such as post-COVID cardiovascular effects and psychosocial factors like impulsivity and substance use in adolescents.
