Overview
Dr. Claudio Bravo, MSc, FACC, FESC, FAHA, is a physician-scientist and currently an Associate Professor of Medicine and a heart failure and transplant cardiologist at UCSF. He completed fellowship training in Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Cardiology at Columbia University and holds a Master of Science in Epidemiology from the University of Washington. His primary contributions include describing the role of adenylyl cyclase type 5 blockade in animal models of heart failure and studying outcomes of patients with advanced heart failure using continuous flow LVADs. His research focuses on discovering new molecular mechanisms and pharmacological targets for treating right ventricular failure using multi-omics. Clinically, Dr. Bravo's goal is to provide top-notch medical care to his patients and to advance the field.

Altmetrics Details
PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media.
(Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.)
Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication.
Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication.
Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.)
