Biography
Christian Cole is Reader in Health Informatics and Academic co-Director of the Health Informatics Centre (HIC), University of Dundee. His research interests are in developing tools and infrastructure to advance data analysis capabilities within Trusted Research Environments (TREs) where healthcare data are securely held. He is interested in making AI/ML more directly clinically relevant by using real-world datasets to better model the diversity of data.
Chris is Director of the Alleviate Pain Data Hub which is an HDR UK national data hub specialising pain and chronic pain with the Advanced Pain Discovery Platform (APDP) consortium. The aim of Alleviate is to be the hub for UK pain data in a federated manner by removing data silos. Pain data is made more accessible via the OMOP common data model in collaboration with HDR UK.
He has held previous roles as a Principle Investigator in Data Science at the Leverhulme Research Centre for Forensic Science (LRCFS) and lead of the Data Analysis Group (DAG) in the School of Life Science at the University of Dundee.
