Personal profile
Research interests
Dr. de las Fuentes’ ongoing clinical and translational research projects investigate the role played by common genetic variants in myocardial metabolism genes in modulating the hypertensive cardiovascular disease phenotype in humans. Of particular interest are the genetic, metabolic, and environmental predictors of left ventricular hypertrophy, left ventricular dysfunction, and vascular hypertrophy.
Clinical interests
In-patient care and testing only. Heart disease, heart conditions, hypertension, dilated cardiomyopathy, cardiac hypertrophy, genetics in cardiovascular disease, nuclear cardiology, echocardiography, cardiac metabolism, cardiac energetics, cardiac aging, coronary artery disease, ventricular infarction.
