Cristiano Amarelli

I am a doctor, editor, and researcher currently living in Napoli, Italia. My interests range from technology to travel. I am also interested in innovation, jazz, and wine.

I'm a nonacademic cardiac surgeon involved in the field of heart transplantation during the last 15 years with a strong scientific activity in the field of transplantation, mechanical valve, and mechanical circulatory support.
Born in Naples, I was graduated in Naples at the Second University of Naples where I completed in 2003 my training in cardiovascular surgery.
I'm an active promoter of heart donation for the European Cardiothoracic Transplant Association (ECTTA) stimulating and coordinating the writing process of the European Consensus Conference on thoracic donors and promoting the ESOT E-Learning educational Platform.
