David John Werring neurologist, and academic specialising in stroke. He is professor of Neurology at the UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology and current head of Stroke Research Centre and the department of Brain Repair & Rehabilitation at UCL.
Career
Werring received his Bachelor in
Royal College of Physicians (FRCP) in 2012 and was made full professor at UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology in 2015. In 2017, he became head of the research department of Brain Repair & Rehabilitation at the UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology.[2]
Werring is a recognized expert in the field of stroke, chaired the UK Stroke Forum 2020-2022 and is President of the British and Irish Association of Stroke Physicians since December 2023.[3][4]
Scientific expertise
The core field of research of Werring is stroke, in particular
cerebral small vessel disease, intracerebral hemorrhage and cerebral amyloid angiopathy.[2] He has published more than 400 peer-reviewed articles on those topics and in other fields of clinical neurology.[2] Werring has led large collaborative studies investigating cerebral microbleeds and has expertise in neuroimaging, with a focus on brain MRI.[1] He is currently the primary investigator of a large multi-centre study investigating the timing of oral anticoagulation after ischemic stroke, founded by the British Heart Foundation[5] and has been involved in several studies investigating the influence of COVID-19 and respective vaccines on stroke.[6] He has an h-index of 97,[7] and is an editor of the Queen Square textbook of Neurology and editorial board member of several scientific journals, including the European Stroke Journal, International Journal of Stroke, Practical Neurology, and the European Journal of Neurology.[8][9][10]
