DOM Research Ride Podcast

The Research Ride podcast's "ride leader" is Charles (Charlie) Searles, MD, a faculty member in the Division of Cardiology, Associate Vice Chair for Research and Space Management in the Department of Medicine, and a cardiologist at the Atlanta VA Medical Center. Dr. Searles has a basic and translational research program based at the Atlanta VA that currently focuses on the role of intracellular and extracellular microRNAs in the regulation of vascular cell gene expression and the development of integrative analyses of circulating microRNA and metabolomics profiles to identify biomarkers for cardiovascular disease. Dr. Searles is also an avid cyclist. During the week, you might see him riding his bike through campus during his commute to or from work. On the weekend, you might see him riding his bike to Stone Mountain or riding his bike downtown on his way to an Atlanta United home game.
