On episode 40 of Inside the Studio, Dr. Mehdi Razavi, THI's Director of Electrophysiology Clinical Research & Innovations, sits down with Grand Rounds guest Dr. Mark McCauley.

Dr. McCauley, Director of the Cardiac Electrophysiology Training Program at the University of Illinois in Chicago and a former THI fellow, discusses his pioneering work with carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers.

These advanced nanomaterials offer an innovative approach to restoring electrical conduction within the heart and reducing life-threatening arrhythmias.

From cell studies to large animal models, Dr. McCauley shares the remarkable progress in using CNT fibers to "short-circuit the short circuit" caused by scar tissue, a breakthrough that could redefine arrhythmia prevention and treatment.
