Samples & Data
- - - Brokering easier access to consented patient data and samples
      
      The UK has millions of samples and billions of data points collected from UK patients who have agreed that their samples and data can be used for research. But small UK medical research companies struggle to access them.

University of Leeds – Leeds Microbubble Consortium

Brings together specialists from across the University to work on using small gas filled bubbles to deliver anti-cancer drugs directly to a tumour

We work with the University of Leeds – Leeds Microbubbles Consortium on a pioneering method of delivering lifesaving drugs using microbubbles. The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council is funding the University of Leeds research, and we match this by providing expertise and resources in drug discovery, and laboratory facilities.
