Alicia Lyle is an Assistant Professor in the Department of
Medicine’s Division of Cardiology at the Emory University School of Medicine,
where she also manages the Lyle Cardiovascular Lab. Her research is centered on
peripheral artery disease (PAD), in particular, the ways in which vascular
inflammation impacts new vessel formation. This more comprehensive
understanding of PAD hopes to uncover novel treatment targets that would be
non-surgical and less invasive than current options. With the Lyle
Cardiovascular Lab, she continues her study of inflammation, using techniques
from molecular biology, cell biology, and animal physiology. In addition to her
academic work, Lyle serves on the Emory Department of Medicine Research Steering
Committee.
