• University: University of Strathclyde
• Academic Rank: Senior Lecturer (Biomedical Engineering)
• Active Research Domains: Cardiology, Biomaterials, Drug Delivery, Tissue Engineering, Computational Modeling

Research Interests: McCormick’s research combines mathematical modeling and experimental approaches to study drug release kinetics from stents, antimicrobial coatings, and vascular calcification. He explores 3D printing for patient-specific aortic grafts and synthetic heart valves, while also investigating oxidative stress in coronary stent coatings.

Article Trends: His recent publications (2024–2025) emphasize antimicrobial PLGA coatings, polymeric heart valves, 3D-printed vascular models, and diamond-like carbon films. Keywords span Biomedical Engineering, Drug Delivery, and Tissue Engineering, with subfields like Nitric Oxide Release, Restenosis Prevention, and Multi-material Printing.

Projects: Leads 19 research projects, including organ-on-a-chip vascular aging models, synthetic heart valve development, and antimicrobial coating optimization. Supervised 6 PhD/MSc students, with collaborations across cardiology, pharmacology, and materials science.

Activities: Active in peer-reviewed publications (73 total), conference contributions, and dataset creation (6). His work has been cited over 200 times in Scopus.
