The North East Innovation Lab has secured a £1.4m grant to continue work on assessing and evaluating the next generation of diagnostic tests.
Part of Newcastle Hospitals, the lab was originally established as part of the region’s integrated Covid hub and supports the development of technology needed to detect viruses and other health threats.
Based at the Newcastle Helix science quarter, the lab’s team of NHS scientists specialise in molecular biology, methodology and clinical research, with a client base including UK and international organisations, from university spin-outs to large multinational corporations.
