JAMA Cardiology marks its 10th anniversary with a leadership transition that builds on a decade of extraordinary growth.
Today we welcome Barbara Casadei, MD, DPhil, from the National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College London, as Editor in Chief. An internationally recognized clinician‑scientist, Dr Casadei brings extensive experience in global cardiovascular research.
In her inaugural Editorial, Dr Casadei outlines a vision focused on:
📌 Make JAMA Cardiology a global meeting place, fostering engagement and contributions from a diverse, international community. The journal will disseminate trustworthy, evidence-based information, especially on managing increasingly older and complex patients, while addressing the challenges posed by misinformation and pressures on the profession.
📌 Encourage innovative scholarship that develops new ways to implement preventive measures for cardiovascular disease at scale, learning from countries that have creatively overcome cultural, financial, or geographic obstacles
📌 Demystify emerging technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), and make them accessible and familiar to the cardiovascular community and narrow the divide between clinicians and data/computer scientists.
“We want to inspire and support the next generation of cardiovascular investigators and hold ourselves responsible for communicating the importance of conducting research that has the potential to improve cardiovascular health and, thus, the quality of life of hundreds of millions of people worldwide,” she writes.
