Dr Kishore has an interest in the diagnosis and management of acute cerebrovascular conditions such as acute ischaemic stroke, acute intracerebral haemorrhage, carotid & vertebral artery dissections, and TIAs. He is also interested in secondary prevention, understanding the aetiopathogenesis of stroke, and the evaluation of embolic strokes of unknown source, small vessel disease and relevant neurovascular pathology.

Dr Kishore has several areas of research interest in the field of stroke medicine, including atrial fibrillation (AF) and pneumonia. He has several related publications in high indexed peer-reviewed journals in stroke and general medicine and has presented at national and international conferences. He has participated in international stroke trials and has taken a lead on several systematic reviews and meta-analyses related to acute stroke management and secondary prevention. He has developed antibiotic guidance on pneumonia-complicating stroke and is also leading on improving atrial fibrillation detection after stroke across the region through a quality improvement project. He has been involved in developing local and national guidelines and his publication on AF detection has been referenced in the RCP Stroke Guidelines (2016).

Dr Kishore is an Honorary Senior Lecturer in the Department of Cardiovascular Sciences at the University of Manchester where he has supervised post-graduate students. He supervised undergraduate and postgraduate students in clinical and academic work and is also a question writer (MRCP part 1 and 2) for the RCP.
