Martin Morad, PhD. is Professor of Regenerative Medicine and Cell Biology at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) and the University of South Carolina (USC) and Professor of Bioengineering at Clemson University. He is the Director of the Cardiac Signaling Center and holds the BlueCross Blue Shield of South Carolina Endowed Chair in Cardiovascular Health, which includes a unique three-way faculty appointment at the USC, MUSC and Clemson University.

Dr. Morad is an internationally recognized scientist in the field of cardiac electrophysiology and calcium signaling. He has pioneered many of the seminal findings and technology in the field of Cardiac calcium signaling. He has had over 300 original publications, 20 of which have appeared in Science and Nature. Dr. Morad’s career is marked by an incessant drive to formulate new physiological and molecular concepts based on innovative technology. He was first to Voltage-clamp cardiac tissue, use laser scanning of optical dyes to measure action potential propagation in the heart, Photo-release of caged compounds in cardiomyocytes and neurons, and apply TIRF imaging to resolve calcium signaling dynamics. His work has generated critical data on a wide variety of biological processes, ranging from EC-coupling, SA-nodal pacemaking mechanism, Regulation of ion channel proteins and Calcium signaling alternations in development and comparative biology. He has had a distinguished scientific career as a Professor of Physiology and Medicine at University of Pennsylvania, Georgetown University, and now as an Endowed professor at the three leading universities of SC. He has trained over 100 Graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, most of whom have leading academic positions in American, European, and Asian Universities. Among his many honors and services to the scientific community, in an advisory or editorial capacity, are also his services as the organizer of international high profile scientific conferences. He was awarded the German Government senior Scientist Alexander von Humboldt prize for his seminal work in cardiac electrophysiology.
Dr. Morad's current research is focused primarily on the complex protein interactions that regulate heart function that requires creation of transgenic animals that over-express or are deleted of proteins that are thought to be critical in pathophysiology of heart failure and cardiac arrhythmias. His Lab has pioneered the use of stem cell derived cardiomyocytes in probing the mechanisms underlying the CPVT1 arrhythmia using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technique. His gene editing approach may lead to new therapeutic approaches to treating life-threatening arrhythmias and to creation of tissue-based pacemaker using genetically engineered cells from patient dermal fibroblasts. His research for the past 50 years has been continuously funded by NIH.

He has maintained a lab at Mount Desert Biological Labs in Maine for 40 years, where he has cloned genes from marine species and has introduced them in mammalian hearts to prevent arrhythmias associated with cardiac failure.

MEETINGS SYMPOSIA AND CONFERENCES -Since 1989 he has attended more than 150 international Meetings/Symposia/Conferences (such as FASEB Res. Conf., FEBS Meetings, Gordon Research Conf., Harden Conf., J. Monod Conf.; Eur. Symp. on Hormone&Cell.Regul., Keystone Symp., etc) as invited speaker. -2005: Founder and First Co-Chairman of the series of Gordon Research Conference “Signal Transduction Within the Nucleus”. RESEARCH INTEREST: His work (397 full length papers in peer reviewed Journals including New England Journal of Medicine, Nature, PNAS, J. Biol. Chem., Mol. Cell. Proteomics, FASEB J., Biochem. J., Blood, Leukemia, Stem Cells, J. Clinical Oncology, BBA Reviews on Cancer, Progress in Lipid Research, J. Lipid Research, J. Cell. Physiol, Molecular Psychiatry, EMBO Rep., etc.) covers the following fields: Structure and function of the nucleus and Inositide-dependet Signalling. He has discovered the existence of the nuclear signalling pathway via inositol lipid cycle and he is internationally recognised in the field of inositide signalling as “one the fathers of nuclear inositide signalling” for his seminal work in this issue. In particular since the last years his main interest is the study of the nuclear localisation and signalling activity of polyphosphoinositides. Namely he has furtherd the role of this signalling pathway in the nucleus during myogenic differentiation, giving new insight to its role in myotonic dystrophies, as well as during haemopoietic differentiation, envisaging the pathophysiological significance of nuclear phosphoinositide signalling in pathology.

Shin was the founding Director of Brain Science Institute, KIST, and then Director of Center for Cognition and Sociality, IBS. He continues his research as an Honorary Fellow of IBS. He serves a CSO at SL Bigen Co. (Ltd.).
He studied neural mechanisms for animal behaviors, primarily focusing on the role of the thalamus in normal and diseased brains. His interest was on the regulation of intracellular Ca 2+ levels in brain cells. He utilized gene knock-out tools on genes such as voltage-gated Ca 2+ channels and PLC enzymes. Beginning in 2010 his research interest has evolved to neurobiology of social behaviors. He has pioneered to establish a behavioral paradigm, observational fear learning in mice, a rodent model for emotional contagion, basic form of affective empathy. This paradigm allowed, for the first time, to study affective empathy at the molecular and cellular levels.
He has been elected to be a member of the National Academy of Science, Republic of Korea, a foreign member at the National Academy of Science, USA, and an AAAS Fellow.
