His mentorship has seen several of his mentees attain independent faculty roles, underscoring his commitment to fostering future leaders in medicine. He has received several honors including the ANIO rising star award, the Carl Nacht Memorial lecture and the Harold Lamport clinical research award. Dr. Joshua Lampert, MD Joshua M Lampert, MD, FACC is a cardiac electrophysiologist, Assistant Professor of Medicine and the Medical Director of Machine Learning for Mount Sinai Fuster Heart Hospital. Dr. Lampert is full-time faculty at Mount Sinai Hospital where he specializes in the management of patients with heart rhythm disorders. He was a recipient of the Mount Sinai Physician of the Year award in 2021 and has been recognized on multiple occasions for delivering exceptional patient care by the Patient Comments Committee. He focuses on the treatment of patients with the full spectrum of cardiac arrhythmias including catheter-based treatment and ablation of atrial fibrillation, complex atrial flutters, supraventricular tachycardia, and ventricular arrhythmias. He performs device implants such as left atrial appendage closure devices, pacemakers, defibrillators, and novel leadless pacemaker systems. He completed his medical training in internal medicine at Columbia University Medical Center (New York Presbyterian) and his training in cardiovascular disease and clinical cardiac electrophysiology at Mount Sinai Hospital. He is board certified in internal medicine, cardiovascular disease, echocardiography, and clinical cardiac electrophysiology. As Medical Director of Machine Learning, he develops and applies novel machine learning tools to improve patient care by augmenting the capacity to diagnose, risk stratify, and treat a variety of conditions. His work includes an ECG-based deep learning algorithm to predict which patients with premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) go on to develop weak hearts. Additionally, he studies large language models and machine learning approaches to revolutionize modern clinical decision-making. His work also traverses the intersection of novel algorithms, health system structure, and workflows to translate these innovations into clinical practice in an era of augmented intelligence. He has been recognized for his academic contributions by leading medical organizations including the 2024 Simon Dack Award from the American College of Cardiology and the 2025 William J. Mandel Most Innovative Abstract Award by the Heart Rhythm Society. Dr. Akhil Vaid, MBBS Dr. Akhil Vaid, MD is an Assistant Professor in the Division of Data-Driven and Digital Medicine and the Windreich Department of Artificial Intelligence and Human Health at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. His research focuses on the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence in healthcare, particularly in cardiology. Dr. Vaid has made significant contributions to the field, with numerous publications exploring deep learning techniques for analyzing medical data. His work includes developing AI models for detecting cardiac dysfunction from echocardiograms and electrocardiograms, as well as applying deep learning to natural language processing (NLP) in clinical documentation, computer vision for medical imaging analysis, and tabular data modeling for predictive analytics in healthcare. He is also deeply involved in model implementation, ensuring that AI solutions transition from research into practical, real-world clinical applications. His research is widely cited, highlighting its impact on medical AI and clinical decision-making. Beyond research, Dr. Vaid is actively involved in teaching and mentoring, shaping the future of digital medicine. As a member of the A.I.M.S. Lab, he collaborates with a diverse team to advance AI-driven innovations in medicine and science. About HeartSciences HeartSciences is a medical technology company focused on applying innovative AI-based technology to an ECG (also known as an EKG) to expand and improve an ECG’s clinical utility. Millions of ECGs are performed every week and the Company's objective is to improve healthcare by making it a far more valuable cardiac screening tool, particularly in frontline or point-of-care clinical settings. HeartSciences has one of the largest libraries of AI-ECG algorithms and intends to provide these AI-ECG algorithms on a device agnostic cloud-based solution as well as a low-cost ECG hardware platform. Working with clinical experts, HeartSciences ensures that all solutions are designed to work within existing clinical care pathways, making it easier for clinicians to use AI-ECG technology to improve their patient's care and lead to better outcomes. HeartSciences' first product candidate for FDA clearance, the MyoVista® wavECG™, or the MyoVista®, is a resting 12-lead ECG that is also designed to provide diagnostic information related to cardiac dysfunction which has traditionally only been available through the use of cardiac imaging. The MyoVista® also provides conventional ECG information in the same test. For more information, please visit: https://www.heartsciences.com.
