David C. Wendell, PhD

Senior Research Scientist
Duke University Medical Center
Durham, North Carolina, United States

My current position is senior research scientist at Duke University working in the Duke Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Center (DCMRC). I received my Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from Marquette University with a focus on computational simulations of blood flow in the thoracic aorta using cardiac MRI data as input data for the simulations. As a dedicated research scientist I have been involved in a range of projects from basic science sequence development, pre-clinical testing of novel pulse sequences, transitioning these sequences to clinical practice, and more clinically-oriented research projects. The goal of much of my research is to understand cardiovascular pathophysiology using CMR as the investigative tool to elucidate new insights into the cause of and progression of cardiovascular disease. Tying imaging findings back to the underlying physiology has been an exciting area of research for me.
