.Her research interests lie in the design and analysis of diffusion cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI) techniques with a focus on cardiac biomarkers that may aid in the diagnosis and prognosis of cardiac disease. Her current work aims to determine cardiac biomarkers most sensitive to microstructural remodeling in Duchenne (doo-shen) (Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), and more specifically, biomarkers that are indicative of early disease progression in this population.
