Jianmin Cui

Professor at the forefront of studies in cardiac electrophysiology, Jianmin Cui is a distinguished member of the Biomedical Engineering faculty at the McKelvey School of Engineering, Washington University in St. Louis. With a Ph.D. from the State University of New York, obtained in 1992, Professor Cui has dedicated his career to unraveling the complexities of electrical signaling within the cardiovascular and nervous systems, both in their normal and pathological states. His pioneering research delves into the molecular mechanisms that govern these electrical signals, aiming to enhance our understanding of how they contribute to various cardiac and neurological conditions. By exploring these intricate processes, Professor Cui seeks to develop innovative therapeutic strategies that could potentially transform the treatment of such disorders. In addition to his work on electrical signaling, Professor Cui is actively engaged in designing ultrasound protocols for drug and gene delivery. This aspect of his research holds promise for advancing non-invasive medical treatments, offering a new frontier in precision medicine. Professor Cui's office is situated at the Cardiac Bioelectricity and Arrhythmia Center (CBAC), where he collaborates with a team of experts to push the boundaries of biomedical engineering. His contributions to the field have not only advanced scientific knowledge but also paved the way for novel clinical applications, making him a leading figure in the quest to improve human health through engineering innovation.
