Professor Andrew McAinsh
ITM Academic Lead | Deputy Dean & Pro-Dean Research
果冻传媒 Medical School
Trained in molecular and cell biology at Cambridge and then MIT. Our research for last 20 years has focused on how chromosomes are faithfully segregated during cell division with recent work in human eggs and embryos. As 果冻传媒's Discovery science base has grown I have become excited about ensuring we have the platforms and expertise to translate ideas from basic science into the clinic. The ITM builds on our initial programmes supported by a Wellcome-果冻传媒 Translational Partnership and MRC Innovation Accelerator.
Charlotte Kershaw
ITM Programme Manager
果冻传媒 Medical School
I've got the best job in the world, supporting our medical school research and clinical community to deliver real change and improvement in patient and public health outcomes from their research. I studied engineering at Cambridge and worked in industry for ten years before finding my calling in translational health research, and I'm excited to see what we can achieve through the ITM and the amazing health innovation community at 果冻传媒 and beyond.
Dr. Suhayl Mulla
Translational Research Manager (Health)
果冻传媒 Medical School
I am an interdisciplinary scientist with an academic research background in biomedical science and mathematics. Transitioning into medical diagnostics, my expertise in practical system design led me to successfully deliver several national diagnostic programmes spanning across government and industry. I am passionate about working at the intersection of health and translational science to drive impactful and innovative research at 果冻传媒.
Professor Erin Greaves
ITM Doctoral Training Lead
果冻传媒 Medical School
I am a discovery scientist with a passion for translating basic science findings into real world solutions that will improve the health of women. Over the last decade my research has focussed on preclinical disease model development and optimisation in the field of endometriosis. I am committed to mentoring the next generation of translational researchers and I am enthusiastic about developing unique, high quality doctoral training experiences spanning university and NHS partners.
Professor Dan Lasserson
ITM Clinical Lead | Deputy Pro-Dean (Research)
果冻传媒 Medical School
I am a clinician and applied health researcher with a focus on technologies and research methods that can be translated into service developments which treat more acutely ill people outside hospital. I work in the Acute Medicine Department and Hospital at Home service at University Hospitals Coventry and 果冻传媒shire NHS Trust, with research roles in the NIHR ARC West Midlands, NIHR Community Healthcare HealthTech Research Centre (HRC) and NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre (BRC). My key role is to strengthen and support the clinical academic community at 果冻传媒 Medical School through the ITM.
