Development, regeneration, and repair of blood vessels in the heart

Dr. Kristy Red Horse is an Associate Professor at Stanford University’s Department of Biology and Institute for Stem Cell Biology & Regenerative Medicine. She is interested in cardiovascular development and regeneration. Current research in the Kristy Red-Horse Lab, centers on how coronary vessels of the heart develop duing embryogenesis and how they regenerate following cardiac injury. The long-term goal is to discover novel developmental mechanisms while contributing knowledge towards the advancement of clinical treatments for cardiovascular disease.
