The Division of Cardiology at Johns Hopkins is committed to identifying the role of stress in heart function and determining the susceptibility of patients to this syndrome. We feel that we are poised to be able to identify the cause(s) and the results of acute and chronic stress on the heart. Moreover, Hopkins physicians and scientists are working to understand the role of genetics in stress cardiomyopathy. The Fund for Research in Stress Cardiomyopathy has been created to support these research efforts and to promote clinical and biomedical research of the effects of stress on the heart.
