Stephanie Fenwick, PharmD
"I graduated from UC in 2006 and then did a pharmacy practice residency at the Mobile Infirmary Medical Center in Mobile, Alabama. After residency, I worked as the emergency department clinical pharmacy specialist at The Christ Hospital from 2007 to 2014 and then moved to an internal/family medicine role from 2014 to 2015. In January of 2016, I moved to Newcastle upon Tyne in the United Kingdom where I started a business as a freelance medical writer (because I couldn’t work as a pharmacist). I had lots of adventures while living abroad, including traveling to as many European countries as I could, getting a British driver’s license, exploring very old castles, and navigating the process of importing your dog to the U.K. and then back to the U.S."

Although the technology requires further validation, researchers said it could help improve the identification of patients with heart failure, valvular conditions and left ventricular hypertrophy before they become symptomatic, which could improve the prognosis for people with these conditions.
