Professor Alun Davies is a Professor of Vascular Surgery at Imperial College London's Department of Surgery & Cancer (Faculty of Medicine). He is affiliated with the Vascular Science Network and collaborates with interdisciplinary groups such as the Cytokine Biology of Atherosclerosis Group and the Vascular Proteomics team at King's College London. His research focuses on cardiorespiratory medicine, venous disease management, peripheral artery disease, and public health interventions. Key projects include clinical trials evaluating compression therapies (e.g., GRACE trial), biomarker studies for venous ulcers, and guideline development for varicose vein treatments. His research interests span venous and arterial disorders, including endovenous therapies, thrombosis prevention, and gender-specific surgical approaches. Notable contributions include systematic reviews on post-thrombotic syndrome prevention, interventional strategies for deep vein thrombosis, and the use of artificial intelligence in vascular imaging. He also explores patient-centered outcomes and adherence to guideline-recommended therapies in chronic conditions.
