Tingyan Wang
NIHR Advanced Fellow
Brief Biography:
Dr Wang started doing postdoctoral research in the Barnes group in October 2018 after getting her Ph.D. degree at Tsinghua University. She recently became a Principal Investigator (PI), establishing her own group in Healthcare Data Science and Intelligence. She is currently supervising both DPhil and predoctoral students. Most of her work has been focused on patients’ electronic health records analysis and predictive modelling by leveraging machine learning, deep learning, and statistics techniques.
Research interests:
Healthcare data science, medical informatics, disease risk prediction, longitudinal electronic health records analysis.
The current research in my group focuses on Hepatitis B and Liver Cancer. We apply advanced data analytics such as machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing (including large language models), and statistical techniques to large-scale real-world clinical data (both structured and unstructured). Our goal is to generate insights into disease trajectories, predict clinical outcomes, and support data-driven improvements in patient care.
Current projects:
NIHR Advanced Fellowship Project – Healthcare data science and machine learning in chronic hepatitis B and liver-related disease.
NIHR Health Informatics Collaborative (HIC) Programme - Viral Hepatitis and Liver Disease Theme.
NHS Thames Valley and Surrey Secure Data Environment (TVS SDE) Programme.
