New research from the Royal College of Anaesthetists (RCoA) and the ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ reveals that nearly three-quarters (71%) of UK hospitals are not routinely screening older surgical patients aged 60 and older for frailty—despite clear evidence that frailty significantly increases the risk of complications, including longer hospital stays, delirium, and even death.

An expert from the ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´, whose research is vital in helping to improve the quality of life and care of people with dementia, has been awarded a Fellowship from the Academy of Medical Sciences.

Scientists and medics have developed an ultra-rapid method of genetically diagnosing brain tumours that will cut the time it takes to classify them from 6-8 weeks, to as little as two hours – which could improve care for thousands of patients each year in the UK.

Experts from the ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ have proven that multiple sclerosis (MS) can successfully be diagnosed using an MRI scan, meaning patients no longer need to undergo a painful lumbar puncture.

A large-scale simulated road traffic accident (RTA), led by staff and students from the ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´â€™s School of Health Sciences, has won a national award for delivering an exceptional student experience.

A Professor of Primary Care at the ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ has been awarded an Honorary Fellowship by the Royal Pharmaceutical Society Assembly (RPS), the organisation’s governing body.

A research team at the ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ has received £1.3 million from the Medical Research Council (MRC) to develop a new type of treatment for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a condition affecting over 5 million people worldwide.

Researchers from the ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ are looking for people who have ever been involved in a citizen science project investigating a topic related to mental health, to take part in a consultation.

A ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ Professor has been appointed as a Senior Investigator by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) for a second term, highlighting his exceptional contribution to health and social care research.

An academic from the ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ has been awarded one of the first ever NIHR Impact Prizes, which recognise major improvements in health over the last two decades, driven by research and scientific advances.
