Advanced Diagnostics and Therapeutics
Advanced Diagnostics and Therapeutics supports the delivery of the next level of tailored, personalised therapies to complex populations.
Our Ambition
To be focused on research that will deliver genuine change to people’s lives. We will capitalise on our strong medical and veterinary skill base to drive the creation of a pipeline of novel diagnostic technologies and therapeutics, emerging from the enhanced understanding of disease pathogenesis. This will allow us to deliver significant advances in disease prevention, early diagnosis, and early intervention.
- We aim to bring breakthrough solutions for disease areas with a high prevalence and societal burden.
- We aim to translate our strengths in mechanistic biology into effective disease therapies.
- We aim to make optimised modern therapies fairly and equitably available to all patients who will benefit.
