Background
I joined the Innovation Observatory after completing a Master of Science in Global Public Health and Bachelor of Science in Biotechnology. My role focuses on scanning informal data and intelligence for signals about specific health innovations that have the potential to influence health policy and delivery in the next 3-5 years. I support various stakeholders' (e.g. NICE, NHS England) projects to expedite access to new medicines, medical devices, diagnostics and digital health tools.
About the NIHR Innovation Observatory
The NIHR Innovation Observatory is a world leading health and care innovation scanning centre providing data-driven insights to foster innovation and equitable access to high quality care. We aim to transform health systems and improve population health by providing advanced data-driven insights that foster innovation and equitable access to high quality care. At the core of our work is the development of data-driven methods to identify, capture and synthesise intelligence on new health innovations. We develop and share cutting edge methods in horizon scanning, building capacity in the systems across the public, voluntary and industry sectors.
We deliver essential intelligence and insights about medicines and MedTech innovation to the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE), NHS England, the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), the NIHR, the UK Health Security Agency, the Department for Health and Social Care and industry - allowing these organisations to prepare for policies, regulation and frontline delivery for new, emerging and disruptive technologies.
