Member of:

European Society of Cardiology

Dr. Khan is a National Heart Foundation funded Research Fellow within the Department of Diabetes, Monash University, Australia. He joined the Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Research Institute in 2009 when he started his Master’s degree in the Vascular Biology and Atherosclerosis Laboratory and worked on the role of B2 B cells in atherosclerosis. He undertook his PhD on the role of MeCP2 in the silencing of the Norepinephrine transporter gene in Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) with Prof. El-Osta and a postdoctoral scholarship in the prestigious Karolinska Institute, Sweden and joined the research team of Prof. Francesco Cosentino. On his return to Australia, he Joined Daprtment of Diabetes, Monash University and have been working to identify novel therapeutic molecular targets for diabetes associated atherosclerosis.
