معرفی
Dr. Aminul Ahmed is a Senior Lecturer in Neurosurgery and Consultant Neurosurgeon at King’s College Hospital, affiliated with the School of Neuroscience at King’s College London. His research focuses on advanced therapeutics for traumatic brain injury (TBI) and spinal cord injury (SCI), including stem cell transplantation, gene therapy, and neural tissue regeneration. He leads translational research initiatives aimed at bridging preclinical findings to clinical applications, such as the development of vector-delivered gene therapies and collaborations with institutions like Imperial College London and University College London.
Dr. Ahmed holds an MB/PhD and FRCS (SN) qualification, emphasizing his clinical and research expertise. His work includes pioneering projects like the £9.5m Medical Research Council-funded platform for TBI research and contributions to observational studies on spinal surgery outcomes. He collaborates with multidisciplinary teams to address neuroinflammation and neuroregeneration challenges, with a focus on clinical translation through platforms like the TBI-REPORTER data portal.
Key collaborations include partnerships with Prof. Elizabeth Bradbury (King’s), Prof. Molly Stevens (Imperial), and Prof. James Phillips (UCL). His research has been published in journals such as Neurotrauma Reports and Journal of Neurotrauma, addressing topics like Sonic Hedgehog signaling in neural repair and stem cell-based cognitive deficit amelioration.
Dr. Ahmed’s clinical practice integrates innovative therapies, such as navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) for SCI patients and robotic spinal navigation systems (Vine4Spine). He actively participates in national initiatives, including the British Spine Registry, to improve surgical outcomes and advance understanding of spinal conditions.
