Euan Ashley, MRCP, DPhil

Euan Angus Ashley isn’t from California. He studied physiology and medicine at the University of Glasgow, Scotland before completing his residency at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford. Following a PhD in the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Oxford, he took a giant leap across the Atlantic in 2002 to work in the Quertermous lab as part of the Stanford cardiology fellowship. He is interested in bioinformatics and the application of high throughput technology to cardiovascular biology and tends a program of research aimed at characterizing the role of bioactive peptides in cardiovascular disease. Maintaining an interest in exercise physiology, he is the principal investigator of an intensive program of research aimed at working out the rules of American football, and the complex but related problem of why there are so many baseball games in any given season. Regularly outclassed on the basketball court himself, he has occasionally been found turning to his native soccer for consolation. And when things get really bad, he has even been known to try (Shh!) jazz.
