Professor Sanjay Kinra

Professor in Clinical Epidemiology

United Kingdom

I am a Clinical Epidemiologist. My primary research interest is in Applied Artifiical Intelligence in Global Health. I am passionate about developing low-cost solutions to improve healthcare (mainly primary healthcare and care of non-communicable diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease) in low-resource settings. I try to do this by using digital technologies and AI to empower primary healthcare providers (doctors, nurses, community workers, even lay people) with decision support tools and diagnostics so they can deliver more advanced/specialist care at lower cost. I am also very interested in behaviour science and traditional therapies (such as yoga and Ayurveda), so I often integrate in my solutions. I conduct my research mainly in India and South/SouthEast Asia region.  I teach and supervise PhD students in the same areas.
