Jamshid Karimov Project Staff, Adjunct Assistant Professor of Molecular Medicine, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University, Lerner Research Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio, USA. Jamshid H. Karimov, MD, PhD, FAHA, FACC is a cardiac surgeon, researcher, inventor and author with extensive experience in device therapies for heart failure, mechanical circulatory support, total artificial hearts, cardiac replacement, and minimally invasive cardiac surgical techniques. He is currently affiliated with the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University, and the Department of Biomedical Engineering, Molecular Medicine, Cleveland Clinic Lerner Research Institute. Dr. Karimov's research interests and innovative work focus on development of simple surgical devices, new methodologies, advanced cardiac therapies, and platform technologies for cardiovascular applications. As an inventor and Principal Investigator, Dr. Karimov conducted first-in-man efforts at Cleveland Clinic. He has achieved the longest in vivo duration for continuous flow total artificial heart implantation. He has also introduced innovative methods for intraoperative cardiac device management and designed new cardiovascular devices. Kiyotaka Fukamachi Director, Cardiovascular Dynamics Lab and Section Head, Biomechanical Devices, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Cleveland Clinic; Professor, Department of Biomedical Engineering and Department of Molecular Medicine, Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, USA. Kiyotaka Fukamachi, MD, PhD, is a cardiovascular surgeon by training and has been working full-time in research since joining Cleveland Clinic in 1990. He is Director of the Cardiovascular Dynamics Lab and Section Head of Biomechanical Devices in the Cleveland Clinic Department of Biomedical Engineering. He is also a Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering and Department of Molecular Medicine at Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University.
Dr. Fukamachi has extensive experience in the development and evaluation of mechanical circulatory support devices such as the Cleveland Clinic-Nimbus total artificial heart (TAH), CorAideT left ventricular assist device (LVAD), MagScrew TAH and LVAD, PediPumpT pediatric circulatory assist device, DexAide right ventricular assist device (RVAD), continuous-flow TAH (CFTAH), and the pediatric version of the CFTAH (P-CFTAH). He has also been involved in simple cardiac devices such as the Coapsys� and the Gillinov/Cosgrove AtriCure AtriClip. Over the course of his career, he has accumulated nearly 300 scientific publications, 254 abstracts, and 330 presentations. Marc Gillinov Chair, Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, USA. Marc Gillinov, MD, is Chair of the Cleveland Clinic Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery. Since joining Cleveland Clinic in 1997, Dr. Gillinov has become one of the nation's busiest heart surgeons. He specializes in robotic and minimally-invasive heart valve repair and replacement. His patients range from Academy Award winner Robin Williams to his long-time barber, Vince.
A prolific researcher, Dr. Gillinov has more than 450 scientific publications to his credit and has been instrumental in the development of medical devices and treatments that enhance the care of cardiac patients.
Spurred by patients' questions, Dr. Gillinov extended his efforts to help people achieve heart health by teaming with Cleveland Clinic cardiologist Dr. Steven Nissen to write the myth-busting book, "Heart 411: The Only Heart Guide You Will Ever Need.� He also appears on WJW-TV, Fox 8 Cleveland, as "Dr. Marc.�
Dr. Gillinov is thrilled and honored to work with the nation's number one heart team (27 years in a row!) to improve the heart health of people from around the country and around the world.
