Dr. Hirad Yarmohammadi, MD

Hirad Yarmohammadi, MD, MPH, FACC, FAHA, FHRS, is an Associate Professorin the Division of Cardiology, Cardiac Electrophysiology, at ColumbiaUniversity Irving Medical Center. He is a clinician scientist whose workfocuses on the mechanisms, risk stratification, and catheter ablation ofcomplex cardiac arrhythmias. His research integrates electroanatomic mapping,computational modeling, and artificial intelligence to improve ablationstrategies and patient safety. He is known for identifying electrophysiologic signaturesof ventricular tachycardia isthmuses during sinus rhythm, which supports safer,substrate-based ablation. He also studies clinical modifiers of arrhythmiarecurrence and procedural safety, including esophageal injury after atrialfibrillation ablation. His work has appeared in Heart Rhythm, Europace, theJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Journal of American College ofCardiology and the American Journal of Cardiology. Dr. Yarmohammadi iscommitted to mentoring fellows …and junior faculty in clinically grounded,hypothesis-driven research, and to advancing multicenter, externally fundedinvestigation in electrophysiology.
