Dr Karthik Ramasamy and team will assess a new mass spectrometry-based monitoring technique for its ability to predict and identify early disease relapse.
A new study led by the University of Oxford has revealed that a common and usually harmless virus may positively influence how skin cancer patients respond to current treatments.
Researchers at the University of Oxford have developed a new drug delivery system using ultrasound-activated nanoparticles to break through and destroy bacterial biofilms. This offers a promising solution that could address the global crisis of chronic antibiotic-resistant infections affecting hundreds of millions of people worldwide.
A study led by researchers from the University of Oxford\u2019s Big Data Institute has identified 25 genetic variants linked to infertility and 269 that are linked to hormones that can affect fertility.
An international consortium of respiratory scientists, including researchers from the Nuffield Department of Medicine\u2019s Experimental Medicine Division, have shed light on the role of inflammation in asthma. Through their findings, they have provided a new way of predicting and preventing asthma attacks.
Researchers from the Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences are part of a major new research initiative aimed at tackling critical workforce challenges in healthcare, particularly in underserved communities.
The International Severe Acute Respiratory and emerging Infection Consortium (ISARIC) has been awarded up to \u00a316.5 million to build on its globally-recognised efforts to prevent illness and deaths from epidemic-prone infectious diseases.
The world is facing a shortage of 11 million health workers by 2030. World Health Worker Week calls for increased investment in all cadres of the health workforce - nurses, doctors, pharmacists, and others vital to resilient health systems. Health workers save lives, support economies, and advance development goals. Collaborative efforts, such as OUCRU\u2019s training programme in Dak Lak, Vietnam, demonstrate the benefits of investment, with increased vaccine uptake. Protecting, valuing, and training health workers strengthens global health.
Published in Science, a ground-breaking study by the Slack group reveals how combining vaccines with friendly bacteria can boost vaccination efficacy and potentially reduce reliance on antibiotics.
The Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI) has officially entered into a seven-year Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Wellcome, a UK-based charitable foundation, and the University of Oxford. The \u00a391 million agreement was signed at the Wellcome headquarters in London, marking a significant boost for medical research and training in Kenya.
Professor Susanna Dunachie and Dr Caesar Atuire of the Centre for Tropical Medicine and Global Health have been appointed as Co-Associate Directors of the Oxford Global Health initiative.
One in ten people surveyed reported that the NHS has caused them physical or emotional harm, according to a new study by researchers at Oxford Population Health and the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM). The study is published in BMJ Quality & Safety.
This study reports novel fundings from a mouse model called rlss (for restless) of deficient synaptic neurotransmission, that results from a mutation in one of the key SNARE proteins VAMP2.
