Schwartz has been receiving uninterrupted funding for his research activity from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) the last grant funded goes through 2017. Member of the following scientific society: American Heart Association and Council on Clinical Cardiology American College of Cardiology Heart Rhythm Society European Society of Cardiology, European Heart Rhythm Association, and International Honorary Member del Japanese College of Cardiology. The Center for Cardiac Arrhythmias of Genetic Origin is now a national and international referral center for patients affected by the long QT syndrome, the Brugada Syndrome, the catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, the idiopathic ventricular fibrillation, and the short QT syndrome. Schwartz and his group, and over the years he has become a worldwide referral physician for patients affected by complex cases of LQTS. Since 1971 more than 1000 LQTS patients have been followed by Dr. He and his research group continue to investigate the relationship between genotype and phenotype, which represents a “bridge” between molecular biology and clinical cardiology. In 1995 he provided the first demonstration of differential responses to a variety of interventions according to the specific LQTS genes. Schwartz is recognized worldwide as a leading expert in genetic disorders leading to sudden cardiac death in infants and in the young, in particular on the long QT syndrome (LQTS), which he has relentlessly investigated for more than 50 years, defining the multiple clinical characteristics of the disease, developing the two leading pathogenetic hypotheses known as "sympathetic imbalance" and as "intracardiac abnormality", provided essential information on the long term successful effects of antiadrenergic therapy, and contributing to the understanding of the relation between genotype and phenotype. 1990/1994 Head, Cardiac Arrhythmias Unit - Centro di Fisiologia Clinica e Ipertensione - Istituto di Clinica Medica Generale e Terapia Medica - University of Milan - Milan, Italyĭr.1990/1994 - Professor of Medicine, Department of Medicine - University of Pavia - Pavia, Italy.1994/2013 – Professor and Chairman, Cattedra di Cardiologia - University of Pavia - Pavia, Italy.
