Masataka Kawana
Assistant Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
BioDr. Kawana joined the Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Cardiology group in 2018. He completed his internal medicine, cardiovascular medicine, and heart failure training at Stanford. He also completed a postdoctoral research fellowship under Dr. James Spudich in the Department of Biochemistry. He is the Medical Director of Ambulatory Heart Failure and Cardiomyopathy Service in the Advanced Heart Failure program. He manages advanced heart failure patients in the clinic, CCU/heart failure service, and post-heart transplant/MCS service. His research interests are in the fundamental mechanism of inherited cardiomyopathies, and he studies the effect of gene mutation on the cardiac sarcomere function using cutting-edge biochemical and biophysical approaches, which would lead to the development of novel pharmacotherapy that directly modulates cardiac muscle protein. He is involved in multiple clinical trials for pharmacotherapy and novel device studies in heart failure and inherited cardiomyopathy.
