The AMRC and more than 30 top pharmaceutical and health tech companies have signed an open letter to the Prime Minister urging Government to provide financial support for medical research charities.
It is vital that our health research charities are supported through this challenging period if we are to achieve our long term ambitions for UK life sciences. Richard Torbett, ABPI Chief Executive
Supporting the AMRC's call, ABPI Chief Executive Richard Torbett said:
“Medical research charities are a key strength of UK’s life sciences and advances in research depend on collaboration between industry, academia, the NHS and charities, with each playing a unique role.
“Our companies partner everyday with research charities who offer expert insights from their patient communities, which help to make sure that research and treatments maximise the benefits to patients.
“It is vital that our health research charities are supported through this challenging period if we are to achieve our long term ambitions for UK life sciences”.
