Institute of Cellular and Molecular Physiology
Thomas Seidel is a senior researcher and lecturer at the Institute of Cellular and Molecular Physiology, Friedrich-Alexander University (FAU) in Erlangen, Germany. He received his MD/PhD degree from the University of Leipzig, Germany, for his work on computational modeling of cardiac electrophysiology with Stefan Dhein.
During Dr. Seidel’s postdoctoral training at the Cardiovascular Research and Training Institute, University of Utah, USA, he developed a focus on cardiac excitation-contraction coupling and its pathological alterations in heart failure and on 3D microscopy and image analysis techniques under the guidance of Frank Sachse. He then moved to Erlangen, where he started researching cellular and molecular mechanisms of t-system remodeling in human heart failure together with Tilmann Volk.
Dr. Seidel is especially interested in translational cardiac research, for which methods of cell isolation, cell culture and tissue culture of human myocardium are essential.
