Ahead of its HSJ webinar later this month, Snowflake takes a look at how one innovative partnership is striving to improve health outcomes

One of the key agenda items set out by the new health and social care secretary is to make Britain a powerhouse for life sciences and medical technology:

“We will make Britain a powerhouse for life sciences and medical technology. If we can combine the care of the NHS and the genius of our country’s leading scientific minds, we can develop modern treatments for patients and help get Britain’s economy booming.”
