Jonathan Chrispin MD

Dr. Jonathan Chrispin is the Robert E. Meyerhoff Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Cardiology and Co-Director of the Ventricular Arrhythmia Ablation Program at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He is a graduate of Harvard College in Cambridge, MA, followed by an MD degree as a Dean’s scholar from Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville, TN. He completed his training in Internal Medicine, Cardiovascular Disease, and Clinical Electrophysiology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, where he served as the Chief Fellow. His clinical focus is on managing complex atrial and ventricular arrhythmias through medical therapy, implantable cardiac device therapy, and catheter ablation. As Director of the Ventricular Arrhythmia Research Program, Dr. Chrispin’s research has focused on using advanced imaging to understand better the structural and electrical substrates associated with the development of ventricular arrhythmias. In addition, in collaboration with the Johns Hopkins Biomedical Engineering department, he has worked to develop machine learning algorithms to combine cardiac imaging, ambulatory mobile electrocardiogram data, and computational modeling to predict the risk of sudden cardiac death and further guide catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmias.
