Doctor Larissa Winkelbauer

I am a cardiology resident with a strong passion for cardiovascular medicine. Since 2022, I have been part of the research team led by Nicolas Verheyen, focusing on cardiomyopathies and heart failure. My scientific work concentrates on cardiac amyloidosis and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, with a particular interest in strain analysis and echocardiography as powerful tools for improving diagnosis and prognosis evaluation. In addition to my research, I contributed as a tutor at EchoKurs Graz, where I supported young clinicians in developing their skills in echocardiography – an experience that strengthened my enthusiasm for teaching and collaboration. I am motivated to continue expanding my expertise, foster scientific exchange, and contribute to meaningful advances in cardiovascular medicine.
