Research Overview

My major field of research is to assess and objectify the risk factors of cardiovascular disorders in obese children. Since my arrival in London, I have obtained several local and provincial grants, to investigate cardio-vascular function in overweight and obese children and adolescents with congenital heart defects. 

My other field of research is to understand the heart development by imaging of heart function in Xenopus embryos.
