As a biostatistician, my work is centered on providing statistical analysis support for various cardiovascular research topics. A notable highlight of my career is the publication of my first paper in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC), titled "Effect of 2022 ACC/AHA/HFSA Criteria on Stages of Heart Failure in a Pooled Community Cohort." This accomplishment marks a significant milestone in my professional journey. Currently, I am involved in two key projects: the first involves studying the association of Eicosanoids and related inflammatory mediators with cardiovascular disease risk in community settings. The second project is focused on the exploration of the 2022 ACC/AHA/HFSA Natriuretic Peptide cutpoints and their applicability for heart failure classification in obese individuals.
