Dr Leo Anthony Celi is a physician-scientist whose academic and clinical work spans continents and disciplines. After earning his MD from the University of the Philippines in 1990, he completed specialty training in the U.S. (including internal medicine at the Cleveland Clinic, infectious diseases at Harvard University, and critical care at Stanford University) and practiced in the Philippines, the United States and New Zealand, giving him a broad view of healthcare delivery. 

He later augmented his training with an MSc in Biomedical Informatics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 2009 and an MPH in Clinical Effectiveness from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in 2010. 
Currently, Dr Celi serves as Clinical Research Director and Principal Research Scientist at MIT’s Laboratory of Computational Physiology (LCP), a part-time Associate Professor at Harvard Medical School, and a staff physician in the Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC). His research is at the intersection of critical care, computational physiology and global health informatics. He co-led the development of the publicly accessible ICU database MIMIC and the Philips-MIT eICU Collaborative Research Database, enabling thousands of researchers worldwide to explore real-world intensive care data. In parallel, he co-founded and co-directs the initiative Sana, which uses mobile health and open-source platforms to support healthcare innovation in low and middle-income countries.
