Carolyn Louise Lekavich is a Duke faculty member whose work focuses on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, diastolic heart failure, predictive analytics, predictive modeling, and population health. She is listed as an Assistant Professor in Medicine and Assistant Research Professor in the School of Nursing. Her training includes a Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, earned in 2015, following Duke M.H.S. and M.S.N. degrees and a B.S.N. from Ohio Wesleyan University. Her scholarship includes research on early HFpEF identification, ventricular-arterial coupling, cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic health, and heart failure cognition. She also received a Heart Failure Society of America grant for Early Markers of HFpEF from 2015 to 2017.
