🌟Research in the spotlight🌟 We love this thread and blog from AMRC charity Diabetes UK, summarising research highlights from the last month.👇 #ResearchWednesday
The Department of Health and Social Care has announced £400 million investment to boost clinical trials. Given the challenges in embedding research in the NHS, this funding is welcome. It has the potential to make the NHS more attractive for clinical research and trials, benefitting patients and the UK.
Charities play a vital role in igniting and nurturing the careers of the UK's future research leaders. A brilliant example below in this exciting announcement from AMRC member Alzheimer's Society For Researchers 👏
The #INVISIBLE film launches in one week! The film, co-produced by Egality Health, AMRC charities, community organisations, and those with lived experience, focuses on the importance of diversity in public involvement and in #HealthResearch. #BeVisible #MakingResearchInclusive

Delighted to represent AMRC at this event to celebrate women in cardiovascular science organised by one of our members British Heart Foundation. Great to hear funding to back policy commitments from CEO Charmaine Griffiths. Action is needed from funders across the life sciences sector (and others).
"By combining resources, we hope to expedite knowledge sharing, create innovative solutions, and promote efficient use of resources." Exciting to see this collaboration between two of our members ProstateCancerResearch and Breast Cancer Now!
Brilliant new report from AMRC member Blood Cancer UK. It recommends targeted support for clinical trial approvals & funding, as well as strategies to increase participation in trials, particularly among underrepresented groups. #BloodCancerAwarenessMonth
Strong government support for life sciences research is essential to tackle the UK’s health crisis. This includes investing in R&D, tackling health inequalities and prioritising prevention. It’s great to see these areas highlighted in this new report from British Heart Foundation👇
