“Cardiovascular disease remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, and tackling it requires researchers who are comfortable working across traditional disciplinary boundaries. This PhD programme will bring together expertise in cardiology, engineering, artificial intelligence and data science to train researchers to use these interdisciplinary skills to translate technological advances into real improvements in patient care.”
What Fu Siong Ng has said
“Patients can often wait several months for a heart ultrasound scan after being referred for one by their doctor. This makes it exciting that our technology could identify patients most at risk of heart failure and heart valve disease, so they could be prioritised for scans faster and more urgently.”
