Geriatric Fellow Dr. Shivani Priyadarshni has published two new peer-reviewed publications with mentorship from member of the Sealy Center on Aging and UTMB Pepper Center:

• COVID-19 Infection and Incidence of Myocarditis: A Multi-Site Population-Based Propensity Score-Matched Analysis - Cureus
• Association of medication-assisted-therapy with new onset of cardiac arrhythmia in patients diagnosed with opioid use disorders - ScienceDirect

Mentor Dr. Raji, wrote the following:

“Her accomplishments in the 7th month of her 1-year Geriatrics Fellowship Training is an important milestone for our Geriatrics Fellowship. Shivani’s hard work, persistence, and perseverance along with productive mentorship by faculty from UTMB SOM & SPPH have been key to her success. We look forward to her having many professional and scholarly successes ahead, as she transitions from Geriatrics Fellowship to her Cardiology Fellowship in July 2022.”
