Professor Amitava Banerjee

Dr Banerjee is Professor of Clinical Data Science at University College London, and Honorary Consultant Cardiologist at University College London Hospitals and Barts Health NHS Trusts. After qualifying from Oxford Medical School, he trained as a junior doctor in Oxford, Newcastle, Hull, London and Birmingham. His interest in preventive cardiology and evidence-based medicine led to a Masters in Public Health at Harvard(2004/05), an iinternship at the World Health Organisation(2005) and DPhil in epidemiology from Oxford(2010). Although he is subspecialised in heart failure, he has ongoing practice in acute general cardiology and a keen interest in the diagnosis and management of atrial fibrillation. His methodological skills in informatics, epidemiology, biostatistics, public health and cardiovascular medicine have led to collaborations across traditional disciplines from artificial intelligence and learning health systems to evaluation of digital technology and medical ethics.
