Dr. Kwan is an assistant professor of medicine in the section of cardiovascular medicine at the Yale School of Medicine, working on cardio-oncology related translational research to evaluate mechanisms of cardiotoxicities associated with oncologic therapies and the role/effect of clonal hematopoiesis/somatic variants in heart failure and cardio-oncology patients, especially in immunotherapy mediated myocarditis. She leverages AI, radiomics and a multi-omics approach to predict cardiovascular outcomes and identify novel therapeutic targets. She was awarded a NIH KL2 and R56 grants for this work. She obtained her MD and PhD degrees from the Medical Scientist Training Program followed by completing her PSTP in internal medicine at UI Chicago where she has won several research awards. She then completed her cardiology and cardio-oncology/advanced imaging fellowships at Yale School of Medicine. She previously graduated with honors from the University of California, Berkeley with a BA in Molecular Cell Biology, where she was both a Cal Alumni Scholar and recipient of the Berkeley Academic Scholarship. She serves on the board of directors for the American Physician Scientists Association (APSA) and has spearheaded advocacy efforts and initiatives to support the career success of physician scientist trainees and early career physician scientists, including successful advocacy for increased NIH funding. She continues those efforts for early career physician-scientists as a co-founder of the American Junior Investigators Association (AJIA) and has partnered with the National Academy of Medicine to support early career investigators.
