Dr. Kao is an academic cardiologist and Medical Director of the Colorado Center for Personalized Medicine (CCPM) and of UCHealth CARE Innovation Center. He studied biomedical engineering and graduated from medical school at the Johns Hopkins University followed by internal medicine residency and biomedical informatics research fellowship at Stanford. He moved to Colorado in 2008 for cardiology fellowship and subsequently joined the faculty. He has been involved in biomedical research since 1996 and has > 100 peer-reviewed publications and holds the Jacqueline Marie Schauble Leaffer Endowed Chair in Women’s Heart Disease. He uses his clinical experience and informatics expertise to combine and leverage very large clinical datasets in order to close critical gaps in knowledge regarding presentation, natural history and management of congestive heart failure with a specific focus on women with HF. He has been a part of the UCHealth electronic health record and digital health teams as wel
