Rohin Francis is a British cardiologist, writer, comedian, and creator of the YouTube channel Medlife Crisis. He is working toward a PhD on imaging techniques for acute myocardial infarction. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Francis has created content that has looked to educate the public about medicine. Francis is a PhD student at University College London, where he is studying the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a means to image acute myocardial infarction. Francis is a science communicator, with a following of over 500, 000 on his YouTube channel Medlife Crisis.[5] In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, Francis started creating more serious YouTube videos, and has since discussed issues such as coronavirus disease, systemic racism and pseudoscience.[6] In an interview with Men's Health, Francis described why and how people needed to remain positive whilst acknowledging the seriousness of coronavirus disease.[7] He said that it was appropriate for coronavirus disease-related YouTube videos to be demonetised as it could mitigate the spread of misinformation. Francis has argued against the private ownership and licensing of publicly-funded research.[9] He criticised companies such as Elsevier for their high profit margins, earned by licensing primary research.[9] He has also publicly supported Alexandra Elbakyan, the creator of the website Sci-Hub, for her efforts to make research more accessible
