Professor Jeremy Wyatt, DM FRCP ACMI Fellow
Jeremy Wyatt is Director of the new Institute for Digital Health Care, professor of eHealth Innovation in Warwick University and visiting professor in Medical Informatics in Amsterdam and Porto. Before moving to Warwick, Jeremy directed the Health Informatics Centre and eHealth Research Group at Dundee University, was R&D director at NICE and NHS academic adviser for knowledge management and visiting professor in the Department of Primary Care in Oxford. He served on the Board of the NHS Scotland Centre for Telehealth, as implementation adviser to the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network and as a member of the quinquennial review group for the UK Cochrane Centre and York Centre for Reviews & Dissemination. He helped found the Cochrane Collaboration in 1992 and founded the Cochrane Effective Practice & Organisation of Care group in 1994 and chaired AIME, the European Society for AI in Medicine 1991-1998.
His research explores the use of evidence and new models of care to innovate in clinical practice and self care, and evaluating the impact of this. He was the first UK Fellow elected by the American College of Medical Informatics and is the third most cited researcher in his field worldwide with an H index of 24. He trained as a physician in Oxford and London then in medical informatics and clinical epidemiology in London, Stanford and Amsterdam; he still sees patients in a diabetes clinic. Jeremy enjoys demystifying health informatics and has written article series for the Lancet, BMJ and JRSM, the ABC of Health Informatics (Blackwells, 2006) and a handbook on clinical knowledge in practice (RSM Press, 2001).
In his spare time he makes titanium sculpture and jewellery and is a member by portfolio of the Surrey Guild of Craftsmen. He is a micropower advocate and has recently launched his own carbon offset scheme, a one kilowatt grid-connected wind generator.
