Biography

  • Main associations: ISHNE BOT, FACC, FHRS, FESC, FEHRA, member of the Standing Committee of Cardiac Electrophysiology and Pacing Society of the Chinese Medical Association, Chairman of Shanghai Atrial Fibrillation Center Alliance, President of the Cardiovascular Society of Shanghai Stroke Association

  • Developed and created a remote ECG diagnostic system with an annual diagnostic service volume of 1 million person times.

  • Established a variety of innovative diagnosis methods and technical innovations for complex arrhythmias, confirmed that (1) reentry is the mechanism of ventricular tachycardia originating from the aortic sinus; (2) bundle branch reentrant ventricular tachycardia can occur in patients with normal HV interval during sinus rhythm; (3) premature beat originating from Purkinje fibers is an important mechanism to induce ventricular fibrillation and so on.

  • Innovated the optimization of cardiac electrical and structural remodeling, confirmed that the cardiac patch based on aligned carbon nanotube film has a good application prospect in cardiac resynchronization therapy.

  • Established renal denervation (RDN), a non-invasive denervation method for the treatment of hypertension.

  • Innovated and led a one-stop strategy of combined catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) and left atrial appendage closure procedure for AF treatment and stroke prevention.

  • Led the compilation of the ”White Paper on Standardized Diagnosis and Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation in Shanghai” and “Shanghai Municipal Standard for Hierarchical medicine of Atrial Fibrillation.

  • Editor-in-chief of 3 monographs; Obtained 2 key projects of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, 5 general projects and a number of Shanghai Science and Technology Commission projects.
