Summary
Welcome to the Heart of the Matter: Cardiology Conversations at CHOP. In this podcast, made by and for the Cardiac Center at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, we interview members of our community about our history, innovative research, clinical programs and advocacy within our institution. In this episode of Heart of the Matter, Bill Gaynor joins host Michael Goldsmith to discuss his groundbreaking research focused on improving long-term outcomes for cardiac patients, highlighting how environmental exposures, particularly from medical devices, may be a previously underrecognized and modifiable risk factor. He also explores the critical role of the maternal-fetal environment in shaping brain development and lifelong health, emphasizing the need to better understand these factors.
