Dr. Alfred E. Buxton is Professor of Medicine at Brown Medical School and Director of the Cardiology Division at Brown Medical School, Rhode Island, and Miriam Hospitals. He is Director of Arrhythmia Services/Electrophysiology Laboratory at Rhode Island and Miriam hospitals. He directs the Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology Fellowship Program. Dr. Buxton has held academic appointments at the University of Pennsylvania, Emory University, and Temple University. He was PI of the NIH-funded Multicenter Study of Non-Sustained Ventricular Tachycardia. His current research is focused on methods to predict risk of sudden cardiac death, appropriate role of implantable defibrillators for prevention of sudden cardiac death, and mechanisms of ventricular tachycardia. Dr. Buxton serves on the DOM Research Review Committee. He is a member of the joint American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology/European Society of Cardiology Committees writing guidelines for care of patients with ventricular arrhythmias/sudden death. Dr. Buxton Chairs the Electrophysiology Database joint committee of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association/Heart Rhythm Society, and the ICD Registry Committee of the ACC/HRS.
