Biography

Mike Shattock graduated from the University of London with a BSc in Comparative Physiology in 1979, which sparked his interest in cardiac physiology. He completed his PhD at St Thomas’ Hospital in 1984 under the supervision of David Hearse and Chris Fry. After a post-doc in California with Donald Bers, he returned to the UK in 1988 and was awarded consecutive British Heart Foundation Junior and Senior Fellowships at St Thomas’ Hospital. In 2004, he became a Professor of Cellular Cardiology at King’s College London, where he leads the Cardiac Physiology Research Group. This group investigates the regulation of ion transport and electrophysiological responses in the heart during stress conditions, including hypertrophy and heart failure.
