Dr Alicia D'Souza

Dr D’Souza is a basic cardiac electrophysiologist and a BHF Intermediate Research Fellow. She was recently recruited to Imperial as a Reader in Cardiac Electrophysiology. Primary impetus for her move to Imperial was the unique opportunity to perform electrophysiological measurements in human heart tissues from explanted donor and failing hearts available via a human tissue programme operant within the NHLI, coupled with the opportunity to work in collaboration with world-leading researchers and clinician-scientists within a BHF Centre of Excellence. Supported by the BHF and a Fondation Leducq Transatlantic Network of Excellence award, Dr D'Souza's laboratory focuses on the electrical wiring system of the heart, towards the development of new therapies for conduction system disease.
