Research Student
Mentor: Reza Nezafat, Ph.D.
Dr. Jang was a research student in Dr. Nezafat's laboratory from 2014-2020. During her time at BIDMC, she worked on developing techniques and tools to help advance our understanding and treatment of ventricular tachycardia (VT). Her projects included CMR imaging of scar and diffuse fibrosis, studying the correlation between CMR and electrophysiology in patients with VT, and CMR visualization and computer vision. She has subsequently joined Philips Healthcare.
