Sigmund Silber, MD, PhD, is a German cardiologist and academic known for his contributions to medical research and cardiology.[1]
Early life & education
[edit]Sigmund Silber was born in 19498 in Passau, Germany. After completing his secondary education in 1968, Silber achieved the equivalent of a Bachelor of Science through the Abitur in Munich, Germany. He pursued medical education at Ludwig-Maximilians-University (LMU) in Munich from 1968 to 1974.[2] In 1986, he completed his PhD-equivalent thesis "Habilitation" on "Nitrate Tolerance: Induction, Rational Circumvention and Consequences for a Combination Therapy" at LMU.
Research & career
[edit]Concurrently, from 1970 to 1974, he was a Research Associate at the Institute of Experimental Pharmacology at the University of Munich.[3] In 1974, Silber earned his United States Medical License (ECFMG). The following year, he defended his thesis "The Effects of Aescin on Circulation" at the University of Munich, earning an MD with Magna cum Laude honors and obtained his medical license in Germany.
Between 1982 and 1986, Silber was an Assistant Professor at the Medizinische Klinik Innenstadt of Ludwig Maximilians-University, Munich. He also served as Director of Nuclear Cardiology, member of the Isotope and Formulatory Committee at the University of Munich, and Director of the ST-Segment Holter-Monitoring Laboratory at the university.
He also served as an Associate Professor in the Department of Medicine, Division of Cardiology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), USA, from 1987 to 1989.[4] During his tenure at UAB, he held the positions of Director of the Holter-Monitoring Laboratory and Pharmacology Clinic in Birmingham, continuing his involvement in cardiology research and clinical practice.
Sigmund Silber's research has primarily concentrated on the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease.[5] His involvement in various clinical multicenter studies has contributed to the broader cardiology field, especially in enhancing interventions for coronary artery conditions.[6][7]
Awards & honors
[edit]Dr. Sigmund Silber has been recognized with fellowships from several cardiology organizations, including the European Society of Cardiology (FESC), the American College of Cardiology (FACC), and the American Heart Association (FAHA).[8]
