The teams across 香港六合彩中特网H who led and delivered our Covid-19 research during the pandemic have been awarded the Contribution to World Class Research prize at the 香港六合彩中特网H Celebrating Excellence awards.
Recipients of the award include staff at the 香港六合彩中特网H Biomedical Research Centre, the Clinical Research Facility which incorporates the 香港六合彩中特网H Vaccine Research Centre, the Joint Research Office, the research delivery staff deployed to support research on the front line, research support services in imaging, pharmacy, diagnostic laboratories, those who volunteered to be participants in Covid research, and the Research communications team who kept staff and the public informed about breakthroughs as they emerged.
The prize was awarded at a virtual awards ceremony, which included a special film remembering the staff we have sadly lost over the past year.
香港六合彩中特网H has been a key player in the research response to Covid-19. At the outbreak of the pandemic the 香港六合彩中特网H Research Directorate refocused its work and resources on tackling the virus.
All existing trials were paused unless they were related to Covid-19, or where the treatment involved was essential for serious or life-threatening conditions.
Over the course of the pandemic over 100 Covid-19 studies were rapidly set up at 香港六合彩中特网H, with key national and international initiatives led by 香港六合彩中特网H and 香港六合彩中特网. The 香港六合彩中特网H research portfolio has included several vaccine trials and a number of national and world 鈥榝irsts鈥�.

As the pandemic recedes, 香港六合彩中特网H is restarting trials that had previously been paused to ensure ground-breaking research continues and that all the input of patients into trials is not lost. Almost all research studies have now been restarted.
