Peter Kohl is a German scientist specializing in integrative cardiac research. He studies heterocellular electrophysiological interactions in cardiac tissue,[1][2][3] myocardial structure-function relationships using 'wet' and 'dry' lab models,[4][5][6] and mechano-electrical autoregulation of the heart.[7][8][9]
