Dr. Taylor’s research primarily focuses on applying advanced imaging techniques to the study of congenital heart disease and inherited cardiomyopathies. He has explored cardiac metabolic pathways in non-ischemic cardiomyopathy using customized positron emission tomography (PET) tracers and physiological modeling. His work with cardiac MRI has provided valuable insights into heart muscle diseases, particularly in animal models of inherited cardiomyopathies and channelopathies, contributing to a deeper understanding of rare inherited conditions. Dr. Taylor has also developed innovative cardiac MR imaging methods for the Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) population, including new paradigms for clinical surveillance and therapeutic trials. Additionally, he has created pulse sequences and image reconstruction techniques aimed at improving cardiac MRI for pediatric patients.
