Dr. David Cohen

I am a practicing interventional/structural cardiologist and currently serve as the Director of Clinical and Outcomes Research at the Cardiovascular Research Foundation (CRF) and Director of Academic Affairs at St. Francis Hospital in Roslyn, New York. My work centers on understanding the clinical and economic value of interventional cardiovascular therapies—particularly drug-eluting stents and transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). I earned my MD from Harvard Medical School and an MSc in Health Policy from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. My training included residency at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, fellowships in cardiology and interventional cardiology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and a research fellowship at the Harvard School of Public Health. Throughout my career, I’ve been committed to integrating rigorous cost-effectiveness analysis with patient-centered outcomes, ensuring that the therapies we develop not only save lives but also improve quality of life in meaningful ways.
