🚨US tariffs are set to drive up costs for the UK’s MedTech & diagnostics industry – putting pressures on businesses, the NHS & patient care.
🔬I pressed the government to take urgent action & ensure access to life-saving medical technology isn’t put at risk.

I started my adult life at university studying biochemistry before spending my working life in the classroom teaching the next generation of scientists.
That's why I was proud to attend the APPG for Life Sciences in Parliament. Only through world-leading research at our hospitals, universities, and specialist centres can we help build an NHS fit for the future!

Really impressive work by Dr Emma Yates and her team.
Their simple blood test, Enlighten, could have a huge impact in detecting multiple types of cancer at earlier stages.
It's encouraging to know that research into tackling these devastating diseases continues.
“This is our revenge story on cancer”
Dr Emma Yates has won a #WomenInInnovation Award for her groundbreaking blood test which detects early-stage cancer.
The awards empower women entrepreneurs to scale up their innovative ideas via a ÂŁ75,000 grant and 1:1 coaching.
