Chad S. Weldy, M.D., Ph.D.
Assistant Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Weldy Lab studies how human genetic variation drives vascular dysfunction, inflammation, and cardiovascular disease. We integrate human genetics, epigenetics, single-cell genomics, RNA biology, and experimental models to define causal mechanisms and identify new therapeutic opportunities.
Led by Chad S. Weldy, MD, PhD, the lab focuses on questions at the intersection of cardiovascular genetics, vascular biology, and RNA-mediated regulation, with particular interest in smooth muscle cell phenotypic modulation, innate immune signaling, and mechanisms of disease susceptibility governed by epigenetic memory.
Our work is grounded in the idea that genetic discovery can do more than identify risk. It can reveal the biology that matters most and point toward more precise strategies for prevention and treatment.
