About
Barbara Casadei is a pioneering cardiologist and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of cardiovascular science and digital health innovation. Her key research areas include atrial fibrillation, cardiac arrhythmia mechanisms, and the transformative role of health information technology in creating learning health systems. Among her most influential contributions is a landmark 2021 paper on "Health information technology and digital innovation for national learning health and care systems," which has garnered over 369 citations. In this work, Casadei and her colleagues articulated how data-enabled infrastructure can continuously support policy, public health planning, and personalised care—a vision that gained urgent relevance during the COVID-19 pandemic. Her broader impact is reflected in a career spanning fundamental discoveries in oxidative stress and nitric oxide signalling in the cardiovascular system, as well as leadership in large-scale clinical trials. A Fellow of the Royal Society and the British Heart Foundation Professor of Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Oxford, Casadei has been recognised with numerous awards for her translational research. Her work exemplifies how rigorous basic science can be harnessed to build smarter, more responsive health systems.
