Lerman is a

Lerman is the Hilda Altschul Master Professor of Medicine at

He has focused in his research on clarifying the

ventricular arrhythmias.[2] He has been issued 4 patents.[2] Lerman has focused in his clinical work on the diagnosis and treatment by ablation of complicated atrial and ventricular arrhythmias, and treating life-threatening arrhythmias with implantable devices.[2]

Lerman received the Established Investigator Award from the American Heart Association, and had received a number of grants from the National Institutes of Health.[2] He is on the editorial boards of a number of medical and scientific journals, including Circulation and Heart Rhythm.[2]
