Still much to do, and I'm incredibly grateful for the support and energy of everyone who is trying to help us regain our globally-leading position.
Pleased to see HM Govt is keeping up momentum on my Clinical Trials Review, including the ‘double-doubling’ ambition. MHRA is performing much better, moving to a national approach to contracting and costing, and the number of industry-sponsored trials in the UK is growing again.

‘Until now, the approach has primarily been to ask for forgiveness, rather than permission. Unless that changes then public scepticism will scupper one of the UK’s most exciting health and economic opportunities.’ 🖊️ @sairaghafur and @jamesosh newstatesman.com/spotlight/h…

Fighting for compensation has been the hardest and most important part of the @Infactuk campaign. Finding the evidence was easy in comparison. @Emma4facs @CatSmithMP @carolinenokes @Christian4BuryS @jamesosh

Absolutely worthy of the praise. Hoping to meet some of the NHS researchers delivering GM's oustanding performance while I'm in town for #NHSConfedExpo

I'm sorry to hear about your patient @DrEmmaSearle. This is the human cost of the UK's underperformance in clinical trials & underlines the urgent need to fix the system and dramatically increase the number of trials available in the NHS gov.uk/government/publicatio…
I love my job but today was hard: telling a patient who will die of his cancer that I can’t offer a promising clinical trial because an amendment has been stuck with the MHRA since March. This is not good enough and I wonder if my MP would like to come to my clinic and explain?

We can be world-leading in clincial trials again, just as we were during the pandemic. That will be good for patients, good for the NHS and good for UK plc.

Delighted to be supporting @DanielKorski for Mayor. My home city needs new leadership to reinvigorate and renew itself and Dan is the man.

The launch of the Dementia Mission and announcement of its excellent chairs could not be better timed. Developing and adopting treatments for dementia is where the UK's health, life science and wider economic/societal interests align.
Dementia is one of the greatest health challenges facing our society & the NHS today — but historically has received less attention, funding & resources than other conditions.  It's time to "turn the tide" on dementia research writes @jamesosh👇 bit.ly/403KXYO

...as UK is currently an outlier in spending loads on secondary care (treating the sick), but much less than peers on primary/preventive care (keeping people healthy) and social care (freeing up hospital resources and reducing risk of repeat admissions among elderly)

What should a more innovation and R&D-focused NHS look like, and how can we get there? Some recommendations in the report from @CuriaUK Life Sciences Commission, which I chair with @mikebewick911, launched on Monday chamberuk.com/nhs-innovation… @benhowlettuk @ChamberVoice
