The American College of Cardiology has named Dr. David J. Moliterno as the new editor-in-chief of JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions. JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions covers the entire field of interventional cardiovascular medicine and is ranked among the top ten cardiovascular journals for its scientific impact.
Moliterno is the Jack M. Gill Chair and professor of the department of internal medicine at the University of Kentucky. He is also a member of the interventional cardiology faculty at the Gill Heart Institute in Lexington, Kentucky. He has been involved with numerous investigational studies in cardiovascular medicine over the last two decades, with his primary research interest being in acute coronary syndromes.
He currently serves as an associate editor for JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions. Moliterno has been an active member of the ACC, including as a member of the Board of Governors, Strategic Education Committee, and the Interventional Section Leadership Council.
Moliterno replaces Dr. Spencer B. King III, who has served as editor-in-chief of JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions since the journal's launch in 2008. The first issue under Moliterno's editorship will publish in July 2017.
