Professor Charalambos Antoniades is the British Heart Foundation Chair of Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Oxford, where he also serves as Professor of Cardiovascular Medicine, Deputy Head of the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, Director of the Acute Multidisciplinary Imaging and Interventional Centre (AMIIC), and Honorary Consultant Cardiologist at Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. He chairs the British Atherosclerosis Society. His research focuses on the crosstalk between adipose tissue and the cardiovascular system, examining mechanisms by which adipose tissue depots influence vascular and myocardial redox state in atherosclerosis. The Antoniades Group conducts translational research using human tissue models, the Oxford Heart Vessels and Fat (ox-HVF) cohort bioresource, advanced imaging including CT and ultrasound, and artificial intelligence approaches to develop biomarkers such as the Fat Attenuation Index (FAI) for detecting coronary inflammation and predicting cardiovascular risk.
