Oncolytic Virus Research Group We are a group of research scientists studying oncolytic virotherapy for the treatment of cancer. We aim to identify the best strategies for maximizing the therapeutic benefit of oncolytic viruses by potentiating both the direct oncolytic and tumour-specific, immune-mediated effects of these viruses and to translate our findings into the clinic for the benefit of patients.
Simulation and Capacity Modelling Group summary: Simulation and capacity modelling forms a key research theme within the Academic Unit of Health Economics. Our group specialises in the economic evaluation of medical technologies (MedTech), medical devices, diagnostic tests, digital health innovations, and medical interventions where traditional modelling approaches may fall short.
