Emerging therapies: how digital transformation is accelerating innovation
Digital transformation and new technologies in health and life sciences are ushering in a new era of life-changing diagnostics and therapeutics for previously terminal or incurable diseases, from cancer, cardiovascular and respiratory disease, to obesity, dementia, mental health and ageing. In the first instalment of the webinar series, the panel was joined by Lexica's Joanna Smith to discuss the opportunities and barriers to innovation in the development of new therapies.

Bench to bedside: rethinking investment across digital and physical infrastructure
 
Where healthcare, academia and the private sector are co-located, the bench-to-bedside translation of research into clinical practice can often be energised and accelerated. In the UK, investment has been focused on how to better connect the Golden Triangle of the knowledge economies of London, Oxford and Cambridge, where the UK’s leading research institutions at Imperial College London, University College London, King’s College, University of Oxford and Cambridge University are based. In this webinar, our expert panel, chaired by Lexica Director, John Kelly, considered the challenges and opportunities around the world in creating a more effective collaboration that leverages all of the resources offered by the sector partners, from data to capital to talent.

Planetary health and emerging diseases: equipping the life sciences sector to respond
 
Human and animal health are inextricably linked to the health of the planet. Changes to the climate and environmental degradation are leading to more extreme weather events, such as wildfires, floods, heatwaves and mass population migrations, which in combination with the greater encroachment of human settlements into the habitats of wildlife, are increasing the potential for the spread of new and emerging zoonotic diseases, such as Covid-19. In this webinar, our expert panel, joined by Lexica Director, Adam Trigg, explored the role of the health and life sciences sector in mitigating and responding to this existential threat to human health, addressing key questions such as: How should animal and human science research be better integrated to understand the threat of novel zoonotic and infectious diseases? And how can we improve disease surveillance, preparedness, resilience and response?
