At AIS, we believe in facilitating free remote access to excellent surgical contents (synchronous and on-demand) provided by the best international surgeons. This is the starting point to rewrite the rules of training and learning through the use of tools that combine technology and innovation. We believe in democratizing surgical and medical knowledge!

Joel completed medical school at Oxford University and obtained his PhD at Manchester University, helping NICE in the UK as a systematic reviewer to create national guidelines in emergency medicine. He transitioned into cardiothoracic surgery after that, creating projects in evidence-based surgery with the ICVTS during his training, and was an associate editor for the European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery (EJCTS) for six years. He has coauthored eighteen international guidelines and is the first author on nine of them. In addition, Joel created the cardiothoracic advanced life support course, which holds 600 courses worldwide per year. He has led heart surgery humanitarian missions to Ghana since 2019 and runs Pace4life, a charity that implanted 200 reconditioned pacemakers last year. Today, Joel is a cardiothoracic surgeon at James Cook University Hospital in the UK. He specializes in minimally invasive thoracic surgery and teaches teams in robotic thoracic surgery.
