A Researcher, Leader & Mentor<\/h3>\n

For three decades\u00a0Dr. Victoria Bautch<\/a>\u00a0has conducted research at the University of North Carolina. Most of those years have been spent as a member of the\u00a0McAllister Heart Institute (MHI)<\/a>, with the last seven dedicated to her role as co-director.<\/p>\n

Dr. Bautch is preparing to step down from her leadership position on June 30. Her journey at MHI has been marked by a passion for science, a commitment to mentorship, and a vision for collaborative cardiovascular research.<\/p>\n

As a researcher, Dr. Bautch\u2019s early work delved into the intricate processes of blood vessel formation during fetal development, illuminating the remarkable resilience and functionality of blood vessels even in their nascent stages. Over time, her research evolved to include a focus on the complex mechanisms that regulate blood vessel growth and function in adulthood, shaping our understanding of cardiovascular biology.<\/p>\n

Her journey with MHI began as a founding member.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I first came here as a junior faculty member, there was no cardiovascular institute. There were people like me already here and well, we formed the nucleus,\u201d Dr. Bautch said.<\/p>\n

She later transitioned into the role of associate director before assuming the mantle of co-director. During her seven-year tenure as co-director, Dr. Bautch\u2019s contributions have been instrumental in shaping MHI into a thriving hub of interdisciplinary research.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have placed a strong emphasis on assembling a diverse team of basic scientists and physician scientists using a wide range of approaches to understand cardiovascular biology,\u201d Dr. Bautch said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur team includes cell biologists, pharmacists, biomedical engineers, physiologists, medical doctors and others, who are all interested in the cardiovascular field. I believe it\u2019s really important to create pipelines to integrate these professionals and for their work to complement each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

This collaborative spirit has not only enriched research endeavors but has also fostered a sense of community and shared purpose among MHI members. Through initiatives such as annual retreats, lunch meetings, research symposia, and other collaborative events, Dr. Bautch has cultivated an environment where knowledge exchange and collective growth thrive.<\/p>\n

The Lab Work Continues<\/h3>\n

As she prepares to pass on the co-directorship role, Dr. Bautch\u2019s legacy of collaboration, mentorship, and innovation will endure. Her efforts have not only elevated 黑料网\u2019s cardiovascular research profile but have also laid a strong foundation for future advancements in cardiovascular biology, treatment, and care.<\/p>\n

Dr. Rick Stouffer,<\/a>\u00a0chief of the Division of Cardiology, will continue as co-director of MHI.\u00a0Dr. Li Qian<\/a>, current associate director of MHI, will step into Dr. Bautch\u2019s role as co-director.<\/p>\n

\u201cDr. Bautch\u2019s leadership over the years has been a large part of the reason for MHI\u2019s success,\u201d Dr. Stouffer said. \u201cShe will be sorely missed but we are lucky to have someone with Dr. Qian\u2019s talents to take on her role as co-director.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dr. Bautch will remain dedicated to her research at the bench where her passion for blood vessels first ignited, ensuring her fervor for discovery and mentorship inspires the next generation of leaders, particularly women, in cardiovascular research and beyond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
