Annemarie Docherty serves as a Clinical Associate Professor at the Centre for Medical Informatics within the Usher Institute, College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine, University of Edinburgh, and concurrently holds a Consultant position in Critical Care at the Royal Infirmary Edinburgh. Her research pioneers data-driven innovation in intensive care through high-dimensional data integration and AI applications, with focus areas including myocardial infarction diagnosis and multimorbidity management.
Her academic credentials include:
- PhD in Critical Care (2018), University of Edinburgh
- MPH in Public Health (2014), University of Edinburgh
- MBChB in Medicine (2003), University of Bristol
Docherty's work addresses critical gaps in ICU data utilization by developing AI-driven approaches for myocardial infarction detection and time-varying risk prediction models. She explores clinical phenotypes and multi-organ dysfunction through interdisciplinary collaboration, emphasizing stakeholder engagement for real-world implementation of clinical decision-support systems. Her research spans critical care medicine, medical informatics, and clinical data science with direct translational impact.
Analysis of her 2024-2025 publications reveals concentrated expertise in critical care outcomes, post-COVID rehabilitation, and longitudinal health impacts using large-scale cohort studies and randomized trials. These works consistently leverage routinely collected healthcare data to investigate multimorbidity patterns and AI-enhanced diagnostic frameworks in intensive care settings.
Her major recognition includes:
- RSE Mary Somerville Medal (2023)
Docherty leads the ICU-Heart collaboration and serves as data co-lead for the TRAITS trial. Her funded research portfolio features:
- Wellcome Career Development Award (2024-2030): Improving outcomes through multimodal data-driven innovation
- TRAITS Program (2022-2026): Time-critical precision medicine for critical illness
- RESULT-HF Trial (2021-2027): Transfusion strategies in hip fracture surgery
- PHOSP-COVID & HEAL-COVID: National COVID-19 longitudinal studies and adaptive platform trials
She directs the ICU-Heart initiative and contributes to Scotland-wide critical care research infrastructure through the Scottish Intensive Care Society Audit Group (SICSAG), driving integration of data science innovations into clinical practice across multiple ICU networks.
