Dr. Mamatha Bhat is a staff Hepatologist and clinician-scientist at UHN’s Multi Organ Transplant Program and Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto’s Division of Gastroenterology & Hepatology. The goal of Dr. Bhat’s research program is to enable a precision medicine approach to long-term complications after liver transplantation through a better understanding of their mechanistic basis. She has been specifically examining non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma in the context of liver transplantation. Her research program employs a bench-to-bedside paradigm that connects clinical outcomes with basic research using bioinformatic analysis of ‘omic datasets (e.g., transcriptomic, miRNA, methylation, intestinal microbiome) and machine learning tools.
