Matt Bailey is Professor of Renal Physiology and trained at UCL, CNRS Paris and Yale University. He investigates how high salt intake in the food we eat leads to damage of our cardiovascular system and kidneys, causing hypertension and renal disease.
He has >100 publications (H-index=38, citations >4500), including recent papers in Science Translational Medicine, European Heart Journal, & Cardiovascular Research, He has current grants from Kidney Research UK and The British Heart Foundation. Bailey is a PI for the £3M BHF Centre of Research Excellence at Edinburgh.
Matt writes about kidney physiology for major textbooks and teaches at summer schools across Europe. He is active in public engagement (www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZEmj_lks-o) and was shortlisted for THE2018 Outstanding Research Supervisor of the Year.
His current main project areas are: 1) the mechanisms contributing to salt-sensitive hypertension; 2) how does high salt intake change the brain and behaviour and 3) the molecular basis of AKI-to-CKD transition
