117. The Braunwald Chronicles: Natural History of Aortic Stenosis, Beta-Blockers in Heart Failure & Seizing the Moment

CardioNerds (Amit Goyal, Daniel Ambinder, Carine Hamo, and Karan Desai) are honored to bring to you the Braunwald Chronicles. These are stories of discovery, innovation, accidents, perseverance, and more…truly these are the stories of cardiology, directly from a father of modern cardiology himself, Dr. Eugene Braunwald. Dr. Braunwald’s life and stories together are the saga which have brought us to this day in modern cardiology. So please join us for the Braunwald Chronicles, as we journey through the history of cardiology, across 6 extraordinary chapters.

We continue with Chapter 3 where Dr. Braunwald discusses his discoveries related to the natural history of aortic stenosis, beta-blockers in heart failure and times when seizing the moment led to important contributions to the world of cardiology. Dr. Braunwald also shares insights on mentorship as he speaks fondly of his relationship with the cardiac surgeon, Dr. Andrew “Glenn” Morrow. We thank Dr. Karan Desai, Editorial APD with the CardioNerds Academy, and fellow at University of Maryland, for all the work he put into designing the Braunwald Chronicles.
