Dr. David Antcliffe

Biography

David Antcliffe is a Clinical Senior Lecturer at Imperial College London and an Honorary Consultant in Critical Care at Charing Cross Hospital. He obtained his medical degree in 2003 from University College London and pursued postgraduate training in Acute Intensive Care Medicine in London. Between 2011 and 2015, he completed his PhD at Imperial College, focusing on using metabolic profiling to aid in the diagnosis of pneumonia in patients requiring critical care, funded by the Imperial College Biomedical Research Centre and the Intensive Care Foundation. Dr. Antcliffe holds dual Certification of Completion of Training (CCT) in Acute Intensive Care Medicine as of 2016 and returned to Imperial College to continue his academic interests in phenotyping critical illness. His current research interests are centered on utilizing various profiling techniques, such as metabonomic and transcriptomic inflammatory profiling, to identify sub-phenotypes of sepsis and predict how patients respond to specific therapeutic strategies, paving the way for personalized approaches to sepsis care. His ongoing projects include the Corticosteroid Response Gene Expression in Septic Shock (CRESS), aimed at translating findings from transcriptomic studies into bedside applications, and metabolic phenotyping projects that track the metabolic trajectories of patients in septic shock.
