DrSina Fathieh

Clinician–scientist in cardiology with a focus on translating imaging and data science into tools that improve patient care. I trained in medicine in Australia, completed a PhD at the University of Sydney on environmental and biological drivers of coronary artery disease, and now work in the UK across clinical cardiology and applied cardiovascular research. My work spans intravascular and CT coronary imaging, ECG analytics, and biomarker discovery, with an emphasis on underserved and higher-risk groups, including people with coronary disease but no standard modifiable risk factors (SMuRF-less).
Methodologically, I build governed data pipelines and decision-centred analytics and convert them into deployable software. Examples include DICOM Studio and AngioMiner for OCT/angiography curation, labelling, co-registration and feature extraction, the Stent Selector app for precision PCI planning, and Flock for ECG model development and education. These platforms support equitable, auditable AI that is calibrated, uncertainty-aware and designed for real clinical workflows.
Current interests: capturing clinician gestalt for expert-informed AI in ECG, OCT and angiography; linking imaging phenotypes to circulating biomarkers (metabolomics and extracellular vesicles); and prospective, NHS-aligned evaluation of decision support that reduces variation, improves safety and advances prevention.
