Profile

Andrew Bush is Professor of Paediatric Respirology, Imperial School of Medicine at the National Heart and Lung Institute, and Consultant Paediatric Chest Physician, Royal Brompton Hospital. He has served as head of the Paediatric Assembly, European Respiratory Society, and as currently Deputy Editor, American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine. His research interests include clinical physiology, the invasive and non-invasive assessment of airway inflammation, therapy resistant asthma, and airway remodelling in inflammatory airway diseases. He has published more than 300 peer review papers, and numerous chapters and invited reviews; he has supervised or co-supervised 21 MD and PhD degrees. He recently co-edited the 7th Edition of Kendig’s Respiratory Disorders in Children. He is married with four children, none of whom are foolish enough to want to follow the career path he has taken. Outside of medicine, his interests are reading (most avidly when his family are talking to him), music, most ball games and the evasion of all possible domestic responsibilities.
