Education

Kini graduated from India's Vivekananda College in 1984. She received her MBBS from Kasturba Medical College[2] in 1991 receiving 3 honors and gold medals, completing residencies at the University of Wales College of Medicine (in 1996). After receiving training in England, she became a member of the Royal College of Physicians of London. She completed three fellowships at Mount Sinai Medical Center – in 1997, 2001, and 2002, respectively.[3]

Career

Kini serves as a Professor of Medicine, Director of Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory, Director of Interventional Structural Heart Disease Program, and Director of Interventional Cardiology Fellowship at The Mount Sinai Medical Center, where she was named Zena and Michael A. Wiener Medicine Professor in 2016. She researches on the field of percutaneous coronary intervention and heart valve therapy.[4]

Kini co-established, with Samin K. Sharma, the Live Symposium of Complex Coronary and Vascular Cases in 1998 and has served as Director of the Annual Live Symposium of Complex Coronary & Vascular Cases at The Mount Sinai Medical Center. She has experience with the techniques of mitral and aortic balloon valvuloplasty, and has been among the first interventional cardiologists in the country to use transcutaneous aortic valve implantation procedure in the treatment of inoperable patients with critical aortic stenosis. She's reported to perform "more than 1,000 coronary interventions annually, the highest number by a female interventionist in the United States".[5][6][1][7]

Interventional cardiology remains one of the most hostile areas of medicine for women in the US.[8] Kini wrote an editorial to encourage women to stay in the field, entitled 'Women in Interventional Cardiology: If you love it, you will make it', to accompany an investigation into the reasons behind women leaving the subject that was led by Celine Yong.[9]

Awards

Kini was awarded the 2011 Dean's Award for Excellence in Clinical Medicine by The Mount Sinai Health System.[5] In 2017 she was given the Ellis Island Medal of Honor to congratulate her on achievements as an Indian immigrant in the US.[4][5][6] She was the 2018 recipient of the Heart of Gold award from the American Heart Association[10][11] and in 2019 Kini was honored by the New York chapter of the Association of Indians in America for her successful career in cardiology.[12]

Publications

Kini has co-written and had published more than 100 peer-reviewed scientific publications, as well as book chapters in cardiology textbooks.

Books

She is co-author of Atlas of Coronary Intravascular Optical Coherence Tomography, ISBN 3-319-62664-7, Practical Manual of Interventional Cardiology, ISBN 1-447-16580-2, Percutaneous Interventions in Women, An Issue of Interventional Cardiology Clinics, ISBN 1-455-73882-4, Advanced Applied Interventional Cardiology, An Issue of Cardiology Clinics, ISBN 1-437-71800-0, Cardiovascular Intensive Care, An Issue of Cardiology Clinics, ISBN 0-323-24217-0, Coronary artherectomy: Contemporary concepts in cardiology[13] and (with Dr. Valentin Fuster) of Definitions of acute coronary syndromes in Hurst's The Heart.[14]
