Centre for Personalised Medicine; Clinical Decision Making and Patient Safety

Programme 2014 - 2020 INTERREG V-A United Kingdom-Ireland (Ireland-Northern Ireland-Scotland)

Date of latest update: 2021-04-06

Description

Description (EN):

Personalised medicine is a research-based medical approach to guide clinical decisions to ensure a patient receives the right treatment at the right time is now recognised as a key priority internationally. While the promises of personalised medicine are only now beginning to be realised in certain areas of cancer medicine in particular, other disease areas have been slow to adopt or benefit from this approach, partly because of a lack of appropriate clinical engagement. This project will create the oft cited highly sought after ethos and environment needed if personalised medicine is to be adapted in the partner hospitals and in five disease areas that have not yet engaged the personalised medicine discipline. This aim is therefore to establish a Centre for Personalised Medicine; Clinical Decision Making and Patient Safety (CPM) which will dramatically enhance the regional capability while serving as a magnet for regional and FDI industry to create innovative products and new optimised care pathway tools in priority disease areas for patients and commercial benefit. The five Research Clusters (RCs) will utilize the methods and technologies from personalised medicine and apply them to heart disease, emergency surgery, acute kidney injury, unscheduled care in diabetes and diagnostic accuracy in dementia. These are areas associated with significant clinical need and commercial potential and will benefit significantly from the interdisciplinary academic and commercial cross-border expertise and collaboration. The major strength of the proposal resides in the expertise of the assembled highly complementary multidisciplinary team of clinicians, academic researchers and enterprises. The immediate objectives of this proposal are to: - Improve the triage of patients with chest pain to allow more appropriate and rapid emergency referral for PCI. - Identify determinants of outcomes in emergency surgery to improve care pathways and reduce morbidity and mortality. - Earlier recognition of AKI to reduce mortality, morbidity and hospital stay. - Improve the self-management of diabetes to reduce unscheduled care episodes and hospital admissions. - Develop tools which will allow earlier diagnosis of dementia and therefore earlier clinical intervention and support.

Expected Results (EN): 1.1.1: The annual number of peer-reviewed journal and conference publications in two target sectors (Health and Life Sciences and Renewable energy) with cross-border authorship and with the potential to create economic impact.

Expected Outputs (EN):

80.5 years’ worth of PhD (or above) level research conducted in the eligible area across five transdisciplinary research clusters (RCs): RC1 Primary coronary intervention (PCI) in myocardial infarction. RC2 Emergency Surgery. RC 3 Acute Kidney Injury. RC 4 Unscheduled care in diabetes. RC 5 Dementia. and incorporating the key overarching themes of clinical care pathway redesign, personalised medicine biomarkers and point-of-care (POC) diagnostics. The project’s results comprise: • 13 peer reviewed REF-standard journal publications in L&HS across the RC groups as outlined above. The results will be achieved through;Collaboration between world leading RIs, Health Partners (HP); and Enterprise Partners (EP) as noted in the partner section in para 1.2.2. 80.5 PhD man years dedicated to the Project on a cross border basis. This includes:• Recruitment of 1 Research Director, 4 Research Associates, and 10 PhD students contributing 45 PhD man years; • Recruitment of new dedicated staff including Programme Manager, Process Engineer, Biomedical Scientist, Research Associate in Stratified Medicine, and PhD nursing staff member, plus existing Supervisory staff and recruitment of support staff, contributing 32.37 PhD man years; and, • Enterprise partners (see para 1.2.2) having over 40 PhD staff engaged on their industrial research and contributing 3.1 PhD man years.
