Sokratis Stoumpos

Sokratis Stoumpos is an Honorary Clinical Senior Lecturer at the University of Glasgow, affiliated with the School of Cardiovascular & Metabolic Health. His research focuses on nephrology, cardiovascular medicine, and medical imaging, particularly in chronic kidney disease, renal transplantation, and vascular access for haemodialysis. He has contributed to studies on cardio-renal syndrome, imaging techniques like ferumoxytol MRI, and arteriovenous fistula outcomes. His work spans over 26 peer-reviewed articles, including influential papers on cardiovascular complications in kidney patients and guidelines for anaemia management in chronic kidney disease.

Research interests include the interplay between kidney disease and cardiovascular health, with a focus on imaging innovations (e.g., ferumoxytol-enhanced MRI) and clinical outcomes of vascular access procedures. Key areas are: (1) cardio-renal syndrome imaging, (2) hemodynamic effects of arteriovenous fistulas, and (3) optimizing vascular assessment in transplant candidates.

Recent articles emphasize cardio-renal interactions, such as imaging congestion in cardio-renal syndrome (2025) and left ventricular dysfunction in CKD (2022). His 2024 paper on HIF-PHI inhibitors for anaemia highlights contributions to clinical guidelines. Collaborations with institutions like the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital and international nephrology groups further strengthen his research network.

No scientific awards are explicitly mentioned. He currently supervises Htet Htet Ei Khin. His work integrates clinical practice with translational research, addressing gaps in kidney and cardiovascular disease management.
