João Augusto is a Consultant Cardiologist specialising in advanced cardiovascular imaging. He completed his clinical training in cardiology at Barts Heart Centre in London, between 2017 and 2020. He has been a PhD student at the University College London (UCL) Institute of Cardiovascular Science since 2018, focusing on innovative cardiovascular imaging techniques and their clinical applications. Currently, João serves as a Consultant Cardiologist at Hospital Fernando Fonseca and Hospital CUF Tejo in Lisbon, and a Lecturer at Católica Medical School. He leads the Cardiomyopathy Clinic and the Cardiac MRI department at Hospital Fernando Fonseca. João is also actively involved in the field of cardiac imaging as Chair of the Working Group for Cardiac CT, MRI, and Nuclear Cardiology of the Portuguese Society of Cardiology. His areas of expertise include cardiac MRI, artificial intelligence applications in cardiac imaging, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and Anderson-Fabry disease.
