Biography

Kathryn J. Moore is the Jean David Blechman Professor of Cardiology at New York University. Her research focuses on cardiovascular biology, particularly the role of non-coding RNA and microRNA in inflammation and atherosclerosis, which is a major cause of death in the United States. The laboratory aims to understand the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis to identify new therapeutic targets, emphasizing the reduction of chronic inflammation and the promotion of cholesterol efflux. Through hypothesis-driven, unbiased approaches, her team explores key questions related to the innate immune system's activation in atherosclerosis. Moore has a PhD from McGill University and has completed postdoctoral training at Harvard Medical School in the Renal Division and Lipid Metabolism Unit.
