BIO After graduating with a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Tennessee in the spring of 2005, Devin pursued a career that combines aspects of both the practice of medicine and biomedical research. The Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP) at the University of Virginia was a natural fit for such a blend and allowed him to obtain a dual MD/PhD degree. Devin has completed the first two and a half years of medical school and joined the Blackman lab in the summer of 2007. . With a fresh and clinically relevant perspective, he is enthusiastic about translating his knowledge and research into successful breakthroughs that underlie the causes of heart disease and for the possibility of changing the landscape of what we know about and how we treat atherosclerosis. Devin spends his spare time with his wife cheering for the Vols and playing with their puppy, Ellie. Other activities include playing football, softball, and intramural basketball as well as hanging out at the pool.
