NEW YORK, Nov. 7, 2025 — Expert researchers and clinicians from the Leon H. Charney Division of Cardiology at NYU Langone will present practice-changing studies, translational research, and clinical insights at the 2025 American Heart Association’s (AHA’s) Scientific Sessions, held from November 7 to 10 in New Orleans. Topics include diving into inflammation’s role in heart disease, management of a type of heart attack that disproportionately affects women, kidney function in heart failure care, the impact of prenatal cardiovascular health on maternal outcomes, and two late-breaking science presentations.

Additionally, Judith S. Hochman, MD, senior associate dean for clinical sciences, founding director of the Cardiovascular Clinical Research Center, and Harold Snyder Family Professor of Cardiology in the Department of Medicine, will be celebrated with the 2025 Research Achievement Award on November 9 for her decades-long contributions to cardiovascular research and patient care.

“Our outstanding faculty continue to lead the way in advancing cardiovascular care through impactful research that addresses some of our field’s most pressing challenges,” said Glenn I. Fishman, MD, the William Goldring Professor of Medicine and director of the Leon H. Charney Division of Cardiology . “I want to congratulate Dr. Hochman, in particular, who exemplifies excellence in both scientific innovation and mentorship. Her well-deserved recognition by the AHA this year reflects the extraordinary legacy of leadership, collaboration, and pioneering research we strive for across the NYU Langone community.”
