Dr. Weber is the Director of the Cardio-Rheumatology Program, and an Assistant Professor of Medicine at UT Southwestern Medical Center. She is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine with an MD-PhD in Immunology. She received internal medicine training, including serving as a chief medical resident, and cardiovascular training, including an advanced cardiovascular imaging research fellowship at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Her clinical interests include cardiovascular risk stratification and prevention with patients with systemic inflammatory disorders. Her research leverages advanced cardiovascular imaging (stress/PET and coronary CT), biomarkers, and immunology to investigate the relationships between systemic inflammation and CVD, with a focus on the coronary microcirculation and novel metrics of atherosclerotic plaque imaging. Her multi-disciplinary clinical and research program includes close collaborations between cardiology, rheumatology, and dermatology. As a direct extension of her work, Dr. Weber also has expertise in idiopathic and autoimmune recurrent pericarditis and myocarditis. As a testament to her success in this short time frame, she is the recipient of the 2025 American College of Cardiology (ACC) Douglas P. Zipes Distinguished Young Scientist Award.
