About Us

We generate evidence, develop research methods and help to support diagnostic test development.


Industry & Innovators

We collaborate with industry and innovators to evaluate and improve emerging diagnostic tests and devices. Our access to world leading hospitals and extensive clinical networks, as well as our advanced diagnostic assessment methodologies, means we are uniquely positioned to support diagnostic developers – from individuals through to clinical innovators, academic collaborators, SMEs and large multinational organisations.


Patient & Public

Patients and the public are involved in most of our activities and we host regular engagement events to disseminate our findings. Our Patient and Public Board meet regularly to review our strategy and approach and provide input on specific projects.


Our Research

We conduct research with a number of different partners, including industry, clinical groups, NIHR infrastructures, agencies and academic researchers. Being located within one of the world’s best universities, as well as a leading NHS trust, helps us to produce consistently excellent research.
