Conflicting evidence. The biography describes cardiology and cardio-oncology fellowships at Washington University, but the structured education block dates only a 2019 Cardiology fellowship; the cardio-oncology date remains unknown.
Her scholarship includes academic articles, book chapters, and presentations in cardio-oncology and cardiac amyloidosis. She co-edits clinical manuals in cardio-oncology and reviews for several cardiovascular journals.
Kathleen Zhang is a cardiologist specializing in cardio-oncology and cardiac amyloidosis. Her clinical and research work addresses cardiovascular care before, during, and after cancer treatment, the safety of cancer therapies, and diagnosis and treatment of amyloidosis.
Zhang is an Associate Professor of Internal Medicine and member of the Division of Cardiology. She completed internal medicine residency at the University of Pennsylvania and cardiology and cardio-oncology training at Washington University in St. Louis.
