Dr. Rashmi Patel

VP for Medical & Scientific Affairs, Holmusk

I am Vice President for Medical and Scientific Affairs at Holmusk and NIHR Advanced Fellow in Actionable Analytics at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience, King's College London.

I trained as a medical doctor at the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford and undertook academic clinical training in psychiatry at King's College London. I completed a PhD and Medical Research Council (MRC) Clinical Research Training/Health Data Research UK Fellowships in mental healthcare data analytics.

I specialise in real-world data (RWD) analytics using electronic health record (EHR) data. EHRs are used by clinicians to document the care they provide to patients. I have developed and applied natural language processing (NLP) techniques to extract detailed clinical information from free text EHR data to support real-world evidence (RWE) generation that can help to better predict clinical outcomes and inform the pharmaceutical pipeline to support treatment development and market access. I also specialise in the application of real-time data visualisation tools that support clinicians and healthcare providers to optimise the care they provide through actionable insights based on EHR data.
