Shiv Thanigaimani

Dr. Thanigaimani is a vascular biologist whose research focuses on the mechanisms and translational aspects of peripheral artery and aneurysmal diseases. As a Research Fellow at the Queensland Research Centre for Peripheral Vascular Diseases (QRCPVD), he leads studies that integrate preclinical models with clinical data to improve the management and outcomes of patients with peripheral vascular disease.

Dr. Thanigaimani completed a PhD in Medicine at the University of Adelaide following biotechnology training at Flinders University. His doctoral and postdoctoral work explored reverse atrial remodelling and the prevention of atrial structural changes in experimental large animal models of cardiovascular disease.

Since joining QRCPVD in 2019, Dr. Thanigaimani has established a productive research program examining vascular remodelling and disease progression. His research has achieved international recognition, ranking him among the top 0.65% of researchers in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) research worldwide.

He currently supervises several Honours, PhD, and postdoctoral researchers, fostering the next generation of scientists in vascular biology and translational medicine.

Dr. Thanigaimani contributes to the global cardiovascular research community through service as an editorial board member, review editor, grant reviewer, and international advisory board member across leading journals and organizations in the field.
