Pedro F Viana

Pedro F Viana is a Clinical Research Fellow and Locum Consultant Neurologist at King’s College London’s Department of Basic & Clinical Neuroscience within the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience. His primary focus is on epilepsy and clinical neurophysiology, with a particular interest in applying mobile health technology and wearable devices for epilepsy care.

Education includes a PhD in Neuroscience (2024) from the University of Lisbon, specializing in subcutaneous EEG monitoring, and a Board Certification in EEG (2023) from the Canadian Society of Clinical Neurophysiology. He has completed clinical fellowships at King’s College Hospital and Harvard Medical School’s Portugal Clinical Scholars Program.

Research Interests: His work spans clinical epilepsy, EEG advancements, and wearable technologies. Key areas include seizure forecasting via multi-day physiological cycles, subcutaneous EEG feasibility, and leveraging AI (e.g., Llama 2) to analyze clinical data. He collaborates with the Mark Richardson Lab and King’s Epilepsy Research Collective (KERC).

Publications: Over 15 peer-reviewed articles since 2022, focusing on EEG monitoring innovations, wearable device efficacy, and seizure prediction algorithms. Notable works include studies on ultra-long-term EEG systems and AI-driven clinic letter analysis.

Awards: Received the NIHR Development and Skills Enhancement Award (2025) for medical technology development in epilepsy. His research aligns with translational goals to improve patient care through technology integration.

Grants & Labs: Engaged in projects like REAL-ASE (cost-effectiveness of subcutaneous EEG) and the FORESITE study on seizure forecasting algorithms. His work emphasizes practical applications of neurotechnology in clinical settings.
