Education

[edit]

Kutty was educated in India where he obtained his MBBS and a postgraduate medical degree before proceeding to Royal Children’s Hospital, University of Melbourne  and the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Canada where he trained in pediatric cardiology. He received his residency training at the Nicklaus Children's Hospital, Miami, Florida and then enrolled for his fellowship training at the Cleveland Clinic.[7] He trained in cardiac MRI at the Boston Children's Hospital and secured a master’s degree in Healthcare Management from Harvard University and later obtained a PhD.

Clinical career and leadership

[edit]

Kutty specializes in cardiovascular imaging for children and adults with congenital heart disease, including echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography and preventive cardiology. Kutty left the UNMC College of Medicine in 2018 after an 11-year tenure as a clinician-scientist following his appointment at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine to lead Pediatric and Congenital Cardiology.[8] He played a role in the development of the Blalock-Taussig-Thomas Heart Center at Johns Hopkins Medicine in 2019, and participated in clinical programs in materno-fetal cardiac health, adult congenital heart disease, community cardiology, and cardiac catheterization at Hopkins.[9]

He is the Director of the Helen B. Taussig Heart Center and chair of Cardiovascular Analytic Intelligence Initiative at the Johns Hopkins Hospital and holds appointments at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.[3] He serves as the editor of American Journal of Physiology: Heart and Circulatory Physiology and Cardiology in the Young and as consulting editor for the Journal of Clinical Investigation. He seats on the editorial board of several cardiology journals including World Journal of Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery, Journal of the American College of Cardiology: Imaging, Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography and Circulation and Cardiovascular Imaging.[10]

Research and Scientific career

[edit]

His research focuses on investigating myocardial function, right heart disease, and new ultrasound applications. he has led multi-center clinical trials and serves on the editorial boards of international cardiology journals. His work on microbubble contrast agents, ultrasound-mediated cavitation, and targeted ultrasound therapies was funded by the American Heart Association and the National Institute of Health from 2011 to 2018.[11] In 2020 and 2021, Kutty’s team was awarded grants from the National Institutes of Health to lead data science approaches to manage Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C) and post-acute sequelae associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection.[12][13]

Honors

[edit]

Kutty was honored with the Arthur Weyman Investigator Award (2010) by the American Society of Echocardiography for his work in cardiac imaging and the Harvey Feigenbaum lectureship award in 2020.[14][15] He was the recipient of 2019 Distinguished Scientist Award from the university of Nebraska Medical Center.[16]
