Research interests
Fiona is a cardiac physiologist focused on pathologies such as atrial fibrillation. Her work is funded by the Heart and Stroke Trust Endevour (HASTE) grant to investigate atrial fibrillation. This has developed into determining the role of connexin modification in conduction and the implications in the onset of arrhythmias.
