Bouchra Lamia, MD
back

Dr. Bouchra Lamia graduated in 1998 from the University of Paris XII in Creteil, France. She is a board certified specialist in Pneumology and CCM. She has an impressive background and is certified in specific areas of CCM such as mechanical ventilation and echocardipography. She has a Masters of Medical Sciences and a Masters of Research in Cardiorespiratory Physiology. She has received several grants for her research in France. Since November 2006, she is working with Drs. Michael Pinsky and John Gorcson, studying the effects on hemodynamics of induced LBBB in dogs resulting in ventricular dyssynchrony. Dr. Lamia will remain with CCM through October 2007.
