Biography

Naveed Sattar graduated from the University of Glasgow in 1990. In early 1992 he took up his first post as a senior house officer (SHO) at Edinburgh Royal Infirmary; returning to Glasgow later that year as an SHO at the Victoria Infirmary. In 1993 he moved to Glasgow Royal Infirmary, first as a Specialist Registrar then as Senior Lecturer and Reader. He was awarded a PhD from the University of Glasgow in 1998.

He joined the staff of the University of Glasgow and in early 2005 was appointed as Professor of Metabolic Medicine at the Institute of Cardiovascular & Medical Sciences (now School of Cardiovascular and Metabolic Health). He continues as an Honorary Consultant in Metabolic Medicine at the Glasgow Royal Infirmary, where he co-leads a CVD prevention clinic. He is a Fellow of the Royal College of Pathologists; the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons, Glasgow; the Royal Society of Edinburgh; and the UK Academy of Medical Sciences.

He is regularly asked to speak at international conferences and has sat on several national and international guideline committees, including: European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Task Force to develop 2023 Guidelines on diabetes and cardiovascular disease; Joint British Societies 3 CVD prevention recommendations; SIGN obesity and CVD prevention guidelines (latter as Chair); and European CVD prevention guidelines. In later 2023 he was appointed as the UK Government’s new Obesity Mission Chair.

He has epidemiology, mechanistic and trial expertise in diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular disease, having contributed to several lifestyle (e.g. DIRECT, STANDBY, UPBEAT, EUROFIT) and drug (e.g. REMOVAL, TRUST, AMPLITUDE-O, EMPEROR Heart failure) trials, with ongoing activity in several outcome trials. He is an Associate Editor for Diabetes Care and is on the editorial boards for BMC Medicine and Diabetes & Metabolic Syndrome: Clinical Research & Reviews. He has previously been an Associate Editor for Circulation and sat on committees for Diabetologia, Diabetes Digest, Diabetes UK, European Association for Study of Diabetes (EASD), Lancet Diabetes and Endocrinology, American Diabetes Association, Scotland’s Chief Scientist Office, British Heart Foundation, and UK Biobank.

He has authored / co-authored over 1200 published papers and has been cited more than 120k times (Web of Science) and >200K (google scholar). He has been in the top 1% of cited clinical academics in the world since 2014, according to the annual Clarivate Analytics Highly Cited Researcher list. He has received several national and international prizes for his research, including the following lectures: Banting Memorial, Camillo Golgi, Dorothy Hodgkin, Minkowski, John French Rank Nutrition, and the and the RD Lawrence Lecture.

Research interests

Research Theme: Metabolic Disease

Naveed’s main research activity includes investigating the causes, prevention and management of diabetes, obesity and heart disease. He is known for his epidemiology work in diabetes, working primarily with Scottish, Swedish, English colleagues but also others around the world. He has been a key participant in relevant Emerging Risk Factor Collaborative papers as well as leading other local papers within his own group. He is also considered an expert in biomarkers with multiple papers in prestigious journals and ongoing work in seminal cohorts such as ALSPAC, or trials such as PROSPER, WOSCOPS, ADVANCE plus many others.

Clinical Trials

Naveed has plentiful clinical trial expertise and is currently Chief Investigator for an investigator-initiated trial – Studies of empagliflozin and its cardiovascular, renal and metabolic effects in patients with diabetes mellitus (or prediabetes) and heart failure (SUGAR-DM-HF) – funded by Boehringer Ingelheim.

He also led trials such as CAMERA (metformin in CHD patients, Lancet Diabetes Endo), and been on the steering committee for others such as REMOVAL (metformin in Type 1 diabetes, Lancet Diabetes Endo), TRUST (thyroxine in subclinical hypothyroidism, NEJM), PODOSA (lifestyle changes in South Asians, Lancet Diabetes Endo), UPBEAT (weight loss in obese pregnancy, Lancet Diabetes Endo) and DiRECT (diabetes remission with low calorie diabetes, Lancet). He continues as a member of several steering committees for ongoing trials relevant to diabetes prevention, or its management.

Finally, Naveed is known for his ability to work with other disciplines and help instil evidence based knowledge across the cardiometabolic and lifestyle areas. He has thus been invited to participate on multiple clinical guidelines.
