Research

  • Gabriel has a particular clinical and research interest in novel organ perfusion and preservation technologies to improve transplant outcomes and has been one of the pioneers in the field in the UK. He is also using novel machine perfusion technologies as a platform for better organ assessment prior to transplantation and for the testing and delivery of organ repair therapies such as senolytic drugs or human biliary epithelial cells to induce organ repair and reconditioning. In collaboration with engineering teams his research also focused on the development of real-time non-invasive optical imaging technology to analise the biomolecular composition of liver tissue and bile.
