Edward J. Miller, MD, PhD: Dr. Miller’s academic background involves basic, translational, and clinical nuclear cardiology investigations, and my clinical practice centers around the evaluation and treatment of patients with infiltrative heart disease (both amyloidosis and sarcoidosis) including developing novel uses for nuclear cardiology imaging in these conditions. His academic endeavors focus on cardiac metabolism, the direction of a nuclear cardiology core laboratory for international multi-center cardiac imaging trials, and investigations in the population health and imaging of cardiac amyloidosis. He received my MD from Loyola University in Chicago, with post-graduate training in internal medicine, cardiology, and cardiovascular research (PhD in Investigative Medicine) at Yale. Dr. Miller is currently an Associate Professor of Medicine and Radiology and Biomedical Imaging at the Yale University School of Medicine, where he is the Director of Nuclear Cardiology at Yale-New Haven Hospital and Health System as well as the Director of the Cardiovascular Medicine Fellowship Program.
Bryan Young, MD, received his MD from UTSouthwestern Medical School in Dallas,TX, and a PhD at UTSouthwestern’s Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, working in the field of cardiac genetics in the laboratory of Dr Eric Olson. He trained in internal medicine at Yale, where he remained for cardiology training in Yale’s fellowship, directed by Edward Miller. He worked as a post-doctoral research fellow in the laboratory of Dr Jeffrey Bender, working in the area of inflammatory molecular biology in the cardiovascular system. He is now a clinician in the Yale University section of cardiovascular medicine and the nuclear cardiology center at Yale-New Haven Hospital. His academic interests include basic, translational, and clinical research in cardiac imaging and inflammatory biology. He was a recipient of FSR’s 2018-2020 Sarcoidosis Research Fellowship.
Sammy Surrani, PA, is a physician assistant with 33 years experience in emergency medicine and cardiology, and a sarcoidosis warrior. His M.S. degree is in Health Services Management and Policy Analysis. He is the founder of the Health Safe Neighborhood Project, which is designed to provide rapid CPR//AED response. Sammy enjoys public speaking, and in in his younger years was a radio personality spinning tunes during the 70’s and 80’s.
