Robert David Stevens is a Director of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine Precision Medicine AND
Associate Professor of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine. Dr Stevens' research explores mechanisms of critical illness/injury and recovery, with the goal of discovering and validating patient-specific biological signatures in acute conditions such as traumatic brain injury, cardiac arrest, and sepsis. The overarching aim is to validate novel targets for therapy and increase the accuracy of classification and prediction. To achieve this, he has established an interdisciplinary research group composed of biomedical engineers, biostatisticians, data scientists, neuroscientists, systems biologists, and neuroradiologists. Ongoing projects analyze features captured through electronic health records, EEG monitoring, structural and functional MRI of the brain, and wearable sensors, all focused on decoding endophenotypes and increasing the accuracy of classification and prediction in acutely ill patients.
