Dr. Abhinav Sharma is an assistant professor in the Division of Cardiology at the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC). He is a Fonds de Recherche du Québec Sante (FRQS) Junior 2 clinician-scientist which protects 50% of his research time.

He has extensive experience in large data modelling and machine learning (ML) approaches through his research fellowship and PhD training. His research program focuses on: 1) identifying sex-specific HF risk models using clinical variables and proteomic approaches in patients with T2DM (funded CIHR 2021-23); 2) Utilize ML approaches to identify phenotypes in patients with T2DM (funded Heart/Stroke 2022-27); and 3) Utilize artificial intelligence to create new digital biomarkers from wearable devices to screen for T2DM (funded MEDTEQ 2021-24).
