Nadim Mahmud, MD, MS, MPH, MSCE, is a transplant hepatologist and clinical epidemiologist whose research focuses on developing risk prediction tools to improve clinical decision-making for patients with chronic liver disease. He is currently the principle investigator for an ACG Junior Faculty Development Grant, and a recipient of an NIH K08 Career Development Award to identify lapses in projecting surgical mortality risk for patients with end-stage liver disease.This work resulted in the VOCAL-Penn cirrhosis surgical risk score, which is now internationally used as a pre-operative risk stratification tool for patients with cirrhosis being considered for a diverse range of surgical procedures. Dr. Mahmud has previously published widely on acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF), an extremely high-mortality condition impacting patients with cirrhosis. He has developed risk prediction tools for both the development of ACLF, as well as for ACLF short-term mortality. His research also addresses questions pertaining to national liver transplantation outcomes.
