Bradley P. Knight is a Northwestern cardiologist and cardiac electrophysiologist whose work spans atrial fibrillation treatment, arrhythmia mechanisms, imaging-guided procedures, and implantable devices. He is Professor of Medicine in Cardiology and Medical Education and the Chester C. and Deborah M. Cooley Distinguished Professor of Cardiology. His training includes a BS in Public Health/Biostatistics from UNC Chapel Hill, an MD from Ohio State, and medicine, cardiology, and cardiac electrophysiology training at the University of Michigan. He joined Michigan’s faculty in 1997 and later directed cardiac electrophysiology at the University of Chicago from 2002 to 2009. At Northwestern, he led cardiac electrophysiology and the Heart Rhythm Center from 2009 to 2026. He has coauthored over 350 scientific papers and edits major electrophysiology journals.
