We’re a group of scientists, led by Dr Scott Allen, from the Sheffield Institute for Translational Neuroscience at the University of Sheffield and the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Sheffield Biomedical Research Centre (BRC)
The aim is to let people know what is going on in the fields of neuroscience, cardiovascular disease, infection & immunity, imaging & engineering by publishing clear simple summaries of scientific papers.
The team has people affected by the conditions providing feedback on our summaries before they are published to make them as ‘readable’ as possible.
We also have partnerships with both the South Yorkshire Motor Disorders, and South Yorkshire Dementia Research Advisory Groups as well as the Harrogate and District Branch of Parkinson’s UK.
