Kennesaw State researcher earns American Heart Association award for innovative study on heart disease diagnostics

Dr. Anas Raed, an assistant professor at Kennesaw State University, has been honored with the American Heart Association's 2024 Established Investigator Award for his research on heart disease. His study focuses on the role of the protein TRPM2 in heart failure, particularly how its activation leads to increased oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction, exacerbating heart conditions. Raed's work aims to develop targeted therapies to inhibit TRPM2, potentially offering new treatments for heart failure. This recognition not only highlights the significance of his research but also provides him with a $100,000 grant to further his studies, emphasizing the American Heart Association's commitment to advancing cardiovascular research.
