An international team of scientists has developed an online tool for predicting recovery from COVID-19, based on an array of complex biological signatures. Their approach could pave the way for a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underpinning long COVID. Initial research on SARS-CoV-2 focussed on the immune response to the virus in order to […]
Robert Goudie promoted to MRC Investigator
We are really pleased to announce that Robert Goudie has been promoted to MRC Investigator at the MRC Biostatistics Unit (BSU). Robert joined the BSU in 2011. Much of his research since then has tackled the challenge of how to combine information from several different data sources, which can be difficult in many biomedical settings […]
Latest real-time tracking of COVID-19
We have published a new report on our real-time tracking of COVID-19. Updated Findings The estimated number of new daily infections on 2nd December across England has increased substantially since our last publication to 183,000 (134,000–245,000, 95% credible interval) infections per day, corresponding to a national daily infection rate of 327 per 100k population. The highest rates […]
Prostate cancer risk prediction algorithm could help target testing men at greatest risk
Cambridge scientists have created a comprehensive tool for predicting an individual’s risk of developing prostate cancer, which they say could help ensure that those men at greatest risk will receive the appropriate testing while reducing unnecessary – and potentially invasive – testing for those at very low risk. CanRisk-Prostate, developed by researchers at the University […]
