Oxford-trained physiologist, Stanford Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence, who has worked for 40+ years at the interface between the biomedical sciences, computation, and information analysis and management. Serial bio-medical and IT entrepreneur: founder, co-founder or founding consultant for a half-dozen startup companies in biomedicine, national security and finance.Skills and experience include:• Medical imaging: advanced visualization, image fusion and image-guided surgery systems.• Data Mining: pattern discovery and recognition in massive and real-time data and text streams.• Information fusion: methods and architectures for integration of information from diverse sources into coherent views of particular domains (“situational awareness”). Fusion of imagery and other scientific and clinical information. Ontological engineering, knowledge graphs and meta-data methodologies that underpin knowledge fusion environments.• Computational systems biology: use of formal domain models and multi-physics, multi-scale simulation technologies for modelling the structure and dynamics of cellular and organ function.• High performance/capability computing: applied to modelling of complex systems and management of very large, complex data repositories and data mining on high-volume, real-time data streams. Development of specialized processors for large-scale scientific computations.• Strategic impact of informatics in biomedicine: impact of data-intensive research on fundamental understanding of biological systems, on drug discovery and development, and on clinical medicine. Advice to senior management of bio-pharmaceutical companies on strategic and technical issues relating to these areas.
