Description of CVI Expertise
CVI Program Unit(s):CVI Research Description:
Dr. Reilly has extensive training and expertise in cardiovascular medicine, preventive cardiology, clinical pharmacology, epidemiology and translational research.
His interests include (1) mechanisms of atherosclerosis in metabolic syndrome, diabetes and obesity, (2) the role on innate immunity in promoting atherosclerotic risk in metabolic syndrome, (3) the functions of adipose tissue in regulation of HDL cholesterol and reverse cholesterol transport, (4) genetics of atherosclerosis and dyslipidemia in high risk populations including type 2 diabetes, subjects with family history of CAD, populations with chronic kidney disease and in HIV infected populations, and (5) non-invasive imaging of atherosclerosis in humans.
Dr. Reilly employs a translational approach to his research including cell and animal based mechanistic studies, mechanistic patient-oriented, General Clinical Research Center studies as well as larger scale epidemiological studies in humans.
