Igor Efimov, Ph.D., associate professor of biomedical engineering, discusses his poster with Kathryn Yamada, Ph.D., research associate professor of medicine, at the recent Cardiac Bioelectricity & Arrhythmia Center (CBAC) retreat in Uncas A. Whitaker Hall for Biomedical Engineering. Nearly 100 researchers, students and faculty across disciplines attended the all-day event that featured seven sessions, including a keynote talk by Dan Roden, M.D., of the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, who spoke on "Heredity and Drug-induced Arrhythmias: From Gene to Bedside and Back Again." CBAC is directed by Yoram Rudy, Ph.D., the Fred Saigh Distinguished Professor of Engineering and professor of biomedical engineering in the School of Engineering & Applied Science, and of cell biology & physiology, of radiology and of pediatrics in the School of Medicine. CBAC provides an interdisciplinary approach to studying and treating rhythm disorders of the heart.
