About
Dr. Alan Rae is an Honorary Senior Lecturer at the University of Glasgow's School of Cardiovascular & Metabolic Health. His work focuses on acute coronary syndromes (ACS) in patients with prior coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, particularly comparing invasive and non-invasive management strategies. He leads the CABG-ACS study, a pilot randomized controlled trial and registry evaluating treatment efficacy in this population. His research has been presented at major cardiology conferences like ACC.18 and the British Cardiovascular Intervention Society, where he was shortlisted for the Young Investigator Award. Rae's publications emphasize comparative analysis between trial and real-world registry data, aiming to refine clinical decision-making for CABG-ACS patients.
He holds an honorary academic position without part-time status and collaborates closely with cardiovascular interventionists and trial statisticians. His work bridges clinical practice and research, addressing gaps in managing complex cardiac cases post-CABG.
