    About us

    The CSC team at GSTT is a small team working together to improve access and quality of patient care at our Trust and throughout the NHS.

    The team ethos is firmly grounded in a desire to improve the patient care provided by our NHS Trust and beyond. We're a highly dynamic team with a benevolent approach to proposed projects and ideas. While we do work remotely, we are a very unified team and meet often both socially and professionally, with regular post-work events and regular group lunches. There is an atmosphere of openness and collaboration.

    We have a quality management system annually certified by the BSI to allow us to develop Software As a Medical Device, we have a machine learning operations created in-house which we use to train our models, and we have a deployment platform through which our AI applications are hosted and used. We have a DGX and associated server which we maintain within the team and use for machine learning purposes. We have a straightforward and robust way of accessing, analysing and cleaning data. With this combination of platforms we translate clinical research into clinical practice across many different departments.
