Hedley Quintana is a scientific researcher and Profesor Especial I based in Panama with 11 years of experience applying epidemiology, molecular biology and infectious disease expertise to cardiovascular research. He holds a PhD in Epidemiology from Karolinska Institutet and a MSc in Molecular Biology from Södertörns, and his doctoral work on short- and long-term prognosis after myocardial infarction (SHEEP) underpins multiple peer-reviewed publications including in PLOS ONE. At the Instituto Conmemorativo Gorgas he leads translational studies linking molecular methods to population-level patterns to improve MI prevention and management in Panama. He also teaches at Universidad de Panamá, bringing clinical training as an MD and hands-on rural medical experience to classroom and field research. Uncommonly for an epidemiologist in the region, he blends deep molecular lab skills with large-scale epidemiologic modeling, positioning him to translate mechanistic findings into public health interventions.
