Arterial Dysplasia Research Gift Fund
Donor support enables the Ganesh Lab to pursue cutting-edge research on the mechanisms behind arterial diseases, leading to innovative treatments and ultimately improving outcomes for patients.
Support Arterial Disease Research

The Ganesh Lab, led by Santhi K. Ganesh, M.D., the David J. Pinsky, M.D. Endowed Professor in Cardiovascular Medicine and professor of internal medicine and human genetics, pioneers cutting-edge research to uncover the genetic and biological mechanisms underlying arterial diseases and help develop innovative approaches to diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. Your support empowers this world-class team to transform genetic discoveries into life-changing clinical practices and mentor the next generation of researchers who will make a lasting impact on patient care.

A Commitment to Patients

People facing vascular diseases need precise diagnoses and effective treatments, as well as innovative ways to prevent these problems from even developing. This is especially true for those affected by life-altering, lesser-known conditions like fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), and pediatric renovascular hypertension.

Your support helps Dr. Ganesh and her team advance their research to identify mechanisms behind vascular diseases so they can be more effectively prevented and treated and patients can experience better outcomes. Donations support critical lab needs like supplies, equipment, and data analysis that are not covered by grant funding. Donor support is vital during the early stages of research where new ideas are tested and data is gathered and analyzed. This is the work that leads to grant funding and breakthroughs for patients. 

Developing the Next Generation of Leaders and Experts

Dr. Ganesh is grateful to have been mentored by world renowned experts who instilled in her the skills, passion, and commitment to train the next generation of researchers and providers. Your gift is crucial in continuing this legacy by supporting early-career research and protected research time, helping to launch the careers of tomorrow’s experts and ultimately improving patient care for decades to come.

Your support is deeply appreciated. Please join us on this important journey to advance vascular health, improve lives, and shape the future of health care.
