As a leading Medical School we are committed to ensuring that research, innovation and expertise within the School is used to prevent ill health, develop better treatments and be at the forefront of new technologies that can be used to improve care in the NHS. The Healthcare Technology Centre (HTC) is based in one of our state- of-the-art laboratories and its team of dedicated staff are working in collaboration with the NHS and businesses to develop new, innovative healthcare products and services to create lasting economic value in Wales. It is building on our research strengths in Biosensors and Devices, Bio-Informatics and Bio- Analytics. The HTC team is currently working to support businesses based in Wales. HTC project lead, Dr Naomi Joyce says: “The project is looking to work with industry on collaborative innovation projects – we offer access to state-of- the-art equipment facilities and an in-house delivery team of innovation technologists with backgrounds in both academia and industry. HTC can also contribute towards the costs of collaborative projects.”
HTC is also working towards a Bronze Laboratory Efficiency Assessment Framework (LEAF) Award. The award focuses on areas such as procurement and waste, equipment, ventilation, samples and chemicals, people, and research quality. HTC’s goal is to evidence the laboratory sustainability impact and to show that local efforts do make a difference.
