Charles Antzelevitch is an American cardiovascular research scientist in the fields of cardiac electrophysiology and cardiac arrhythmia syndromes.[1]

Education

[edit]

Antzelevitch graduated from Queens College, City University of New York with a BA in biology. He earned a PhD in pharmacology from State University of New York Upstate Medical University in 1978.[1] From 1977 to 1980, he held a postdoctoral fellowship in the department of experimental cardiology at the Masonic Medical Research Laboratory (MMRL) in Utica, New York.[2]

Career

[edit]

After his fellowship, he joined the staff of the MMRL as a research scientist. In 1984, he was named executive director and director of research at the MMRL and was appointed the Gordon K. Moe Scholar, an endowed chair in experimental cardiology, in 1987.[2]

Antzelevitch was a member of the faculty at State University of New York Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, New York, from 1980 until 2015. In 1980, he received an appointment as assistant professor in the department of pharmacology there. In 1983, he was promoted to associate professor and then in 1986, to research professor. He became professor of pharmacology in 1995.[2][3] In 2015, Antzelevitch moved to the Lankenau Institute for Medical Research (LIMR), where he was appointed professor and executive director of cardiovascular research and director of research at the Lankenau Heart Institute. In 2020, he was designated as distinguished professor emeritus at LIMR.[4][1]

Accomplishments

[edit]

Antzelevitch was president of the International Cardiac Electrophysiology Society from 1996 to 1998[5] and has served as secretary/treasurer since 1998.[6] He serves as Associate Editor of Heart Rhythm journal as well as on the editorial board of several other peer-reviewed medical publications, including Journal of Electrocardiology[7] and Journal of the American College of Cardiology.[8] He received the Distinguished Scientist Award from the North American Society of Pacing and Electrophysiology (NASPE), currently the Heart Rhythm Society (HRS 2002),[9] Excellence in Cardiovascular Science Award from the NE Affiliate of the American Heart Association (AHA 2003),[10] Carl J. Wiggers Award from the American Physiological Society (2007),[11][12] Distinguished Scientist Award from the American College of Cardiology (ACC 2011),[9][13] Distinguished Service Award from the Cardiac Electrophysiology Society (2015),[14] the Douglas P. Zipes Lecture Award from the Heart Rhythm Society (2016)[10] and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American College of Cardiology (ACC 2020).[15]
