Bello Lab
The Bello Laboratory focuses on understanding the mechanisms driving the associations between hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and elevated risk of cardiovascular disease. We are also developing targeted therapeutics and designing clinical trials powered to evaluate cardiovascular risk reduction in women with a history of preeclampsia.
The Bello Laboratory is affiliated with the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai.
