SUMMARY:NHS and life sciences: collaborating to shape the future
DESCRIPTION:Date: Tuesday 23rd September 2025 \nVenue: The King’s Fund\, 11-13 Cavendish Square London W1G 0AN \nThe UK has a strong track record as a hub for life sciences. However\, with government radically reshaping the national leadership and management of the NHS\, overhauling the function and purpose of integrated care boards\, and developing its life sciences vision\, the NHS must improve and transform care. With the expected 10-year plan\, life sciences sector plan and 10-year industrial strategy laying the foundations for future collaborative advancements between the NHS and life sciences\, the sector has a significant opportunity to enhance the nation’s health and economic prosperity through encouraging and supporting investment in this high-growth sector. These advancements encompass everything from pharmaceutical and medtech development to genomic and diagnostic testing and digital health. For example\, exciting innovations are harnessing AI for faster image interpretation and automating laboratory and genomic testing to dramatically improve treatment choices. \nHowever\, a thriving and dynamic life sciences industry that enhances patient care and collaborates with the efforts of integrated care systems\, voluntary\, community\, and social enterprises (VCSEs)\, and the broader health and care system through NHS collaboration has yet to reach its full potential. This is due to numerous barriers\, including navigating different organisational cultures and contexts across the public and private sectors\, and building relationships and trust between partners. Challenges persist in bridging the gap between the life sciences sector and the NHS and broader health and care system. These include limited or ringfenced funding\, regulatory changes\, and deeply entrenched barriers to scaling and adoption across the NHS. \nThis conference will explore opportunities to enhance current successes and strengthen collaborative approaches\, and examine how key players in life sciences and the health and care sector can unite their ambitions\, skills and resources to foster partnerships between the NHS and industry. Together\, this collaboration will drive improvements in care\, achieve better outcomes for people\, and create meaningful change. Session topics include: \n\nAmbitious plans for the NHS and life sciences…are we ready?\nMaking care closer to home a reality now – could collaboration help unlock its potential?\nBeyond the horizon – understanding how digital innovation and technologies can shape tomorrow’s health and care\nPutting in place the infrastructure to support partnership working and collaboration across the NHS and life sciences\nEnsuring people and communities and the VCSE sector are at the heart of NHS and life sciences collaboration\nDo we have the right workforce for a health and care system fuelled by NHS and life sciences collaboration? What opportunities does collaboration present for the workforce?\nHow can developments in life sciences support the shift from sickness to prevention?\nCan we really afford the future? A look at what’s coming down the track in life sciences innovation and collaboration.\n\n  \nClick here to register for the event\nIf you have any questions about this event\, please contact The King’s Fund events team at events@kingsfund.org.uk. \n  \nPlease use the discount code SEHTA_10 at checkout. Please note\, the code is valid until 1st September 2025 and only applies to SME/Commercial tickets.

Yet\, on the other hand our personal use of these devices is somewhat more challenging which impacts on business reputation and may decrease the boundaries which previously existed between work and privacy. The session will explore the potential impact social media devices have on organisations\, yourselves and the colleagues you work with. The aim is to help you develop strategies and people management approaches which will help you better control these devices in work. \n6.50 pm – 7.00 pm:        Closing remarks – Dr Mel Bull\, NBS Director of Executive Education. \n7.00pm – 7.30 pm:         Networking with Light Refreshments. \n\nPlease complete the form linked here to register yourself on to the event.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Phase-IV-AI Stakeholder Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Nottingham Trent University is running an online event to gather user requirements (particularly focused on marketisation and stakeholder engagement) for Phase-IV-AI\, an EU funded project developing a “Health Data Hub”\, which provides access to the project’s data synthetisation services (DaaS) and multi-party computation services (MaaS). \nThe project will advance the current state-of-the-art data synthesis methods towards a more generalised approach of synthetic data generation and develop ML orchestration tools for a machine learning workflow using medical data. It will also develop metrics for testing and validation\, as well as protocols that enable synthetic data generation without access to real-world data (through multi-party computation). \nThe project aims to provide: \n\nData as a Service (DaaS)\n\nCore data generation technologies for data availability and reusability.\nState of the art de-identification methods and anonymisation tools to support generative models for synthetic data generation with anonymisation\, and data augmentation methods for providing on-demand data access.\nImproved methods and technical pipelines for privacy-preserving data synthesis including different data formats such as Electronic Health Records and medical images.\nAnonymous data on demand or from a repository.\n\n\nModel as a Service (MaaS)\n\nPrivacy preserving machine learning orchestration tools for a machine learning workflow using medical data residing in hospitals and other healthcare institutions.\nEasy to use and configurable data services to enable AI developers’ access to larger pools of decentralised de-identified data through multi-party computing.\n\n\nHealth Data Hub (HDH)\n\nTo foster innovators and end-users’ needs with a sustainable service for the DaaS and the MaaS.\nEstablish a Data Market – facilitating data sharing and monetisation including incentives-based provision of data to the services.\nIntegrate the data market and the data service ecosystem as a X-European health data hub in the European Health Data Space.\n\n\nResults validated with real-world use-cases\, focusing on lung cancer\, prostate cancer and ischemic stroke.\n\nThis is also an opportunity for collaboration and data sharing across Europe\, with distinct data sets providing additional perspectives for disease prediction. \nThe Ask\nThe area to focus on is using large (primary care) datasets for symptomatic detection\, and to predict current or future disease risk. The project has existing models\, and are developing new algorithms for comparison\, but need to understand what users from different disciplines and backgrounds need from the system for it to be worthwhile. \nIn the first round of requirements development\, they have worked with clinicians and academics\, in the upcoming round would like to focus on the requirements of AI companies and developers. Your input is vital in shaping a system which will be relevant to your needs and will help to provide access to an ever-growing repository of health data. \nREGISTER FOR THE ONLINE EVENT HERE.
