Summary

  • Dr. Timothy J. Kamp is the Tuchman Chair in Cardiology, Professor of Medicine, Cell and Regenerative Biology and Director of the Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He completed his MD/PhD training at the University of Chicago followed by residency and fellowship in cardiovascular medicine at Johns Hopkins University. Dr. Kamp practices clinical cardiology and directs an active cardiovascular research program. His research focuses on understanding basic mechanisms of arrhythmias and strategies for cardioregeneration. His laboratory has developed robust technologies to differentiate human pluripotent stem cells to cardiomyocytes and cardiac fibroblasts as well as strategies of direct reprogramming to generate induced cardiac progenitor cells from somatic cells. Ongoing studies are using patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells to study inherited cardiac diseases including long QT syndrome. Kamp and colleagues are engaged in preclinical studies in animal models of myocardial infarction evaluating various strategies for cardiac repair.
