About
Dr. Tahir Masud is a leading geriatrician whose research focuses on improving physical function and outcomes for older adults, particularly during acute hospitalisation. His work addresses the critical problem of functional decline caused by prolonged bed rest in older patients. Dr. Masud is the principal investigator of the ROBUST trial (2024), a landmark study exploring robot-assisted physical training during acute hospital stays. This innovative work, already garnering early citations, aims to demonstrate how robotic technology can help older patients maintain mobility and independence, potentially transforming standard hospital care. Beyond this, Dr. Masud’s broader contributions to geriatric medicine include advancing fall prevention strategies and promoting active ageing. His research consistently bridges cutting-edge technology with practical, patient-centred care, making him a key figure in the field. With a growing citation impact and a focus on real-world clinical applications, Dr. Masud’s work is essential reading for those interested in geriatric rehabilitation, health technology, and improving quality of life for ageing populations.
