    Keynote Speaker - Dr. Barbara Casadei, MD, DPhil, FRCP, FMedSci, FAHA, FESC

    Lucian Lecture will be held at the Institute of Community & Family Psychiatry (ICFP) which is located at 4333 Chem. de la Côte-Sainte-Catherine The recipient of the 2022 Louis and Artur Lucian Award is Prof Barbara Casadei, from Oxford University. Dr. Casadei did her training in medicine and cardiology at the University of Pavia and Oxford. She subsequently completed her D.Phil. at the university of Oxford. She was appointed Senior Fellow of the British Heart Foundation and was promoted to Professor and British Heart Foundation Chair. In 2014, she became the lead of the Myocardial Biology Theme of the Oxford BHF Centre of Research Excellence and Deputy Head of the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine. She is an international leader in her field. She is past-president of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and during her mandate she founded EuroHeart, an initiative supporting the assessment and improvement of quality of cardiovascular care in Europe, the cardiovascular Patient Forum, and the Women in the ESC. She is active in scientific advisory boards of prestigious institutions and research funding bodies nationally and internationally. Dr. Casadei, who is the British Heart Foundation chair of Cardiovascular Medicine and honorary consultant cardiologist at the John Radcliffe, received the award for her seminal work on the molecular mechanisms underlying atrial fibrillation and heart failure. Her work has focused on the role of nitric oxide signaling in these pathologies. Her work has elucidated the role of a “neuronal isoform” of nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in cardiomyocytes in the regulation of adrenergic responses, excitation-contraction coupling, atrial repolarization and myocardial remodeling after myocardial infarction. Importantly, over the years, Dr. Casadei has continued to advance the field and has identified tetrahydrobiopterin-regulated nNOS, as a cardioprotective mechanism in diabetic cardiomyopathy
