The project comprises the reconfiguration and refurbishment of space to allow the replacement of respective MRI scanners by SLaM and KCL. New accommodation includes an RF shielded room to house the KCL scanner with control room and shared equipment, meeting and office rooms. The project is due to complete in Q1, 2022.

London Institute for Healthcare Engineering. The London Institute for Healthcare Engineering is an exciting development project to create a unique new facility for hosting the flagship institute, in an iconic location on the banks of the Thames. The Institute, which is hosted by the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering & Imaging Sciences, will bring together King’s research excellence, GSTT’s leading clinical practice
and the medtech sector’s commercial innovation power and talent, engaging multinationals, SMEs and start-ups simultaneously. LIHE will provide an ecosystem for close collaboration that will ensure research in healthcare engineering is translated rapidly into new products and technologies that will benefit patients. Located at the southern end of the historic campus, the highly accessible, under-utilised nature of the site, and its opportunity to link hospital, university, and med-tech company activity, makes this an outstanding opportunity to create a facility among the best of its kind in the world and make a positive contribution to the surrounding area. Given the heritage of the surrounding buildings on the campus, the site represents the last significant development
