Prof Andrew Bush
My research interests include the invasive and non-invasive measurement of airway inflammation in children, in particular the use of endobronchial biopsy in the management of severe asthma, and clinical physiology, especially respiratory mass spectrometry. I have supervised more than 50 MD and PhD degrees, co-authored more than 750 papers in peer review journals, and written more than 130 chapters in books and monographs. I am Deputy Editor of the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine. Currently I am Guidelines Director of the European Respiratory Society, having previously chaired the Publications Committee. I am an emeritus NIHR Senior Investigator, and Chief Investigator in a £4.64 million Wellcome Strategic Award. In 2022 I was the first paediatrician to be awarded the British Thoracic Society medal, which is awarded annually to a someone who has greatly contributed to respiratory medicine or science. I have been awarded the 2024 James Spence Medal and an Honorary Life Fellowship, the highest honour of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, and the 2024 ERS Presidential award. Most importantly, I have the eight greatest grandchildren in the world, Dylan and Jack in South Africa, Oscar and his twin siblings Aya and Fletcher, Lydia, Dominic and Ilyas, all in London.
