Mark Paul Donahue matters for cardiovascular research linking heart failure outcomes with genetics, biomarkers, mental health, and care delivery. He is an Associate Professor of Medicine in Duke’s Department of Medicine and trained at the University of Cincinnati, earning an M.D. in 1996 and completing residency from 1996 to 1999, followed by Duke cardiology fellowship training from 1999 to 2003. A 2022 Duke reflection records that he left fellowship a few months early to join the VA faculty in 2003. His documented research includes depression and heart failure progression, pharmacogenomic studies of beta-blocker benefit, cardiovascular risk reduction, proteomics, and Veterans Health Administration surveillance of myocarditis and pericarditis after COVID-19 vaccination.
