interventional cardiologist at Hammersmith Hospital, Imperial College NHS Trust, London. After training at Imperial College, he won a prestigious BHF research fellowship to study arterial haemodynamics. Since then he has continued to
work on the development of mathematical algorithms to aid understanding of large artery physiology and to develop new tools to assess arterial disease. The holder of several patents,
he has published widely in the field of hypertension, coronary and large artery physiology and is the winner of many national and international awards. He has several international collaborations, and is the developer of iFR and the co-principal investigator of the ADVISE studies, the DEFINE-FLAIR, ORBITA and DEFINE-PCI studies. Justin also has an interest in renal denervation, and has lead the first-in-man studies to evaluate the safety of this technique to patients with chronic systolic heart failure (REACH studies).

He is a fellow of the French Society of Cardiology, the European Society of Cardiology and
the American College of Cardiology. A member of the European Association of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (EAPCI) and a member of the director bureau of the French Working Group of Interventional Cardiology (GACI), he is the Director of the French Interventional Cardiology Training Program, and reviewer of multiple Medical Journals and Abstracts. His research interests include basics and clinical aspects of the outcome of high risk population such as diabetics and post-MI patients following percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI),
the use of biomarkers for risk prediction and therapeutic strati cation at the time of PCI, the role of angiogenesis and collateral circulation for endogenous cardiovascular repair and the use of gene therapy and stem cell therapy for regenerating cardiovascular function including myocardial and valve function. More recently it included also the optimization of transcatheter aortic valve intervention (TAVI), in particular the use of ore-procedural imaging and the understanding of the role post-procedural aortic regurgitation.

Dr Waldemar Bojara is Head of the Department of Clinical and Interventional Cardiology at the Gemeinschaftsklinikum Mittelrhein, Kemperhof. He has led the developement of the department of interventional cardiology at the Gemeinschaftsklinikum Mittelrhein, Kemperhof. Dr. Bojara completed his medical education at Bergmannsheil Bochum, University Hospital in Germany. He continued his training in internal medicine and than interventional cardiology at the same institution, was responsible for the cathlabs and established the coronary physiology program as well as the TAVI program. He has a strong interest in coronary physiology since more than 25 years, in particular coronary pressure measurements, flow measurements, intracoronary ultrasound and interventional cardiology including the use of left ventricular assist devices (Impella pump and synchronized extracorporal mechanical circulatory support) for protected PCI- and cardiogenic shock patients.
