Wrapping up my FINAL (!) year of training 9 years after graduating medical school THIS WEEK! A stream of consciousness thread of reflections and lessons learned over the past 9 years for trainees below: 👇

🤔 How should we bridge #implementation gap in #heartfailure? ⁦@ankeetbhatt⁩ shares compelling data to address therapeutic inertia #ImpSci #clinicaltrials 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾exciting path forward #sfsummit25 ⁦@KiranKhush1⁩ ⁦@JeffTeuteberg⁩ ⁦@SunnyVMD⁩ ⁦@KPDOR⁩

🔥🔥🔥Fantastic start to #heartfailure #sfsummit25 Great to connect & learn from Bay Area faculty & fellows 🙏🏾 to ⁦@KiranKhush1⁩ ⁦@JeffTeuteberg⁩ 4 invite ⁦@Stanford_HF⁩ ⁦@EldrinL⁩ ⁦@SunnyVMD⁩ ⁦@ankeetbhatt⁩ ⁦@ISHVnews⁩

Tour de force talk ⁦@SunnyVMD⁩ exploring gamut of device-based tx for #heartfailure Landscape rapidly changing for our patients! #sfsummit25 ⁦@KiranKhush1⁩ ⁦@JeffTeuteberg⁩ ⁦@Stanford_HF⁩ ⁦@EldrinL⁩ ⁦@ankeetbhatt⁩

Special thanks to my co-authors Peter Eckman, Ajay Srivastava, Bill Abraham, and Marc Semigran for their insights and collaboration

In this piece, we: - Offer a VC crash course - Tell the stories behind tech that has advanced HF care (CardioMEMS in #medtech, mavacamten in #biotech) - Describe how cardiologists can engage as founders, advisors, or investigators to shape innovation and find fulfillment

Advances in HF don't come from academia alone. They are built at the intersection of the lab, clinic, and cap table. Our new manuscript in @JCFINT, written by and for cardiologists, covers venture capital and entrepreneurship in heart failure: https://t.co/c4RXBpm1f0

📣New issue of @JCardFail drops today! Check it out & think of us the next time you submit your high-quality🔥 science! ⭐️high-impact (IF>8) ⭐️fast review times (~25 days) ⭐️personalized experience We are always trying to get better 🙏🏽 https://t.co/yy8UfM6HxB @robmentz

🚨Come join @Stanford_HF & our Bay Area HF colleagues to get the updates on advanced HF, heart transplant, shock, MCS, & more‼️ 🗓️Friday, October 24th! 📌SF @OmniHotels 🌐 https://t.co/IJ3tFwWZsC @ISHLT @HFSA @tcccop @JACCJournals @CircHF @KiranKhush1

⭐️🍸🥩@Stanford_HF's fellows @CardiBeatMD @BGomes_1905 @rudyunnilast well-deserved night out celebrating their first month ‼️@kirankhush1 @SunnyVMD @EldrinL @Stanford @StanfordHealth @StanCVFellows @HFSA @ISHLT @tcccop @euanashley

If you take Entresto, we now have the generic and it starts at $33.75 ! It's probably lower than your deductible or Coinsurance. So check it out with your doctor !

👏 @Stanford_HF's celebrating completing their first clinical day on service yesterday‼️ @CardiBeatMD @BGomes_1905 @rudyunni Looking forward to an awesome year ahead. @KiranKhush1 @SunnyVMD @EldrinL @Stanford @StanfordHealth @StanCVFellows @HFSA @ISHLT @tcccop @euanashley

Thrilled to welcome our 3 new AHFTC fellows to Stanford! ⁦@rudyunni⁩ ⁦@CardiBeatMD⁩ ⁦@BGomes_1905⁩. Future leaders in our field! ⁦@Stanford_HF⁩ ⁦@JeffTeuteberg⁩ ⁦@SunnyVMD⁩ ⁦@EldrinL⁩ ⁦@euanashley⁩

New tech alert! A wearable sensor (CardioTag) + advanced ML model estimates Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure, key for heart failure, non-invasively. Tested against invasive measures, it showed strong correlation, opening doors for remote HF management https://t.co/LjQAWLlGuQ

We are in a “golden-era”of GDMT for pts w/ HFrEF, what barriers do we face in 25’ in implementation? Should strategies be dynamic by race/age/SE background? Our editorial in @JCardFail by @UCCardsFellows Mary Acosta @manreetkanwar explores this❓ 📎 https://t.co/FFJfpJOEYW

🥳🙌 Congratulations to @Stanford_HF's graduating HF fellows Ibrahim Alfaris, Leon Zhou, and Ricardo Chi Li! Great work and best of luck‼️ @KiranKhush1 @SunnyVMD @EldrinL @alyelezaby @KMAlexanderMD @stanfordctsurg @euanashley @Ron_Witteles @ATSandhu @vnparikh @ISHLT @HFSA

Incredible talk by @HenryFordHealth's @dlanfearMD using 🧬for precision medicine in HF this am for @Stanford GR and 🙏 for visiting with @Stanford_HF's fellows over dinner. @KiranKhush1 @stanfordctsurg @StanCVFellows @HFSA @JCardFail @EldrinL @SunnyVMD @euanashley

👀 @Stanford_HF surpassed 2⃣5⃣0⃣0⃣🫀transplants in program history this month‼️ Congratulations to the entire team that makes this possible 🙌🎆🥳 @Stanford @stanfordctsurg @StanfordMed @StanCVFellows @StanfordCVI @ISHLT @HFSA @tcccop @KiranKhush1 @EldrinL @Erik_Henricksen

@Stanford_HF's @ErikHenricksen & @KiranKhush1 tackle the ❓of upper limit of age for 🫀transplant from an @SRTRNews analysis. ➡️@StanfordMed summary: https://t.co/zmZl3geP2B ➡️@TheJHLT: https://t.co/mlWrBO3Ol3 @EldrinL @SunnyVMD @Ron_Witteles @ATSandhu @euanashley @Stanford

Kudos to @KiranKhush1 & @ISHLT for an inspiring #ISHLT2025! My biggest takeaway: Students & trainees are driving incredible, tech-enabled research. We must invest in this next-gen talent, especially in #HF! @JeffTeuteberg @EldrinL @euanashley @Stanford_HF
