About the editors
Dr. Adler went to Medical school at Boston University, where he was awarded a Sarnoff Research Fellowship in Cardiovascular Disease. He completed his Residency in Internal Medicine at the University of Washington and a Fellowship at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. He is currently a Clinical Professor of medicine at UCSD, where he is the Medical Director of the Cardiac Transplant Program and the heart failure fellowship's founding director. While at UCSD, he has been awarded both the resident and fellowship teaching awards and the Daniel O'Connor Translational Research Award. He is a former associate editor of the Journal of the American College of Cardiology and currently an associate editor at Circulation Heart Failure. Dr. Adler's clinical interests are focused on the care of patients with advanced heart failure, mechanical circulatory support, and cardiac transplantation. Over the last 15 years, he has participated in seminal phase 1-4 studies of new heart failure therapies. He has been a pioneer in the use of Palliative Care to treat patients with cardiovascular disease, a topic in which he helped write the American Heart Associate Guidelines. Additionally, his laboratory performs research on the use of stem cells and gene therapy to study and treat cardiomyopathy.
