Surviving COVID-19: the future of the NHS
How will the pandemic influence changes in UK healthcare?
The delivery of healthcare has evolved significantly since COVID-19 swept the globe in early 2020, with many services adapting to ensure continuity of care while prioritising only the most urgent of patient needs. As new practices emerge, what impact will they have on the NHS and the society it serves? Join us for a panel discussion about the future of the NHS.
Speakers include Professor Linda Bauld OBE, Bruce and John Usher Chair of Public Health in the University of Edinburgh’s Usher Institute and Chief Social Policy Advisor to the Scottish Government, and Dr Carey Lunan, GP and past Scotland Chair of the Royal College of General Practitioners.
This event will be streamed live online from Assembly Hall, where a limited student audience will be joining our panel.

Traveller Genes: genetics and ancestry
In early 2021, a group of Scottish Travellers asked Professor Jim Wilson a question – could he look at their genes to try to better understand their origins?
For the second in our Research Insights series, Jim will talk us through the latest from the Traveller Genes study. He will be joined by Samantha Donaldson, one of the study contributors, who’ll share her perspective on why and how genetic studies like Traveller Genes are of interest to her community.

What is Research Insights?
Research Insights is free, online and open to all. It’s a chance for you to explore research topics with scientists and clinicians who work in the College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine at the University of Edinburgh and to ask them questions about their work.
Events will run online at 4.30pm on Wednesday afternoons between November 2021 and March 2022. You can find out more and register for these events by following the link below.
We’d love to know what research topics you are most interested in so at the end of each event we’ll ask you for your ideas. We’ll then do our best to find speakers who can cover the most popular suggestion at our final event in March.
We hope that you can join us at an upcoming Research Insights event, and if you think it looks good please share with your friends, colleagues and students who might be interested too.
