New research suggests a skills focused training method could strengthen psychological therapists' ability to deliver more effective care.

Findings from the TRIPOD study suggest it may offer the NHS a cost-effective way to enhance psychological therapies.

New advances in cardiovascular research are helping clinicians predict risk earlier and more accurately from inherited heart conditions to future heart attacks and strokes.

Two new studies published this week highlight how:
🫀heart scans + blood tests can improve risk prediction for inherited heart conditions ➡️ https://t.co/oabRbQjk00
🫀a new tool could help assess future cardiovascular risk across diverse global populations using measures of kidney
function ➡️ https://t.co/T1vol8Y3NT

Both studies were supported through our research infrastructure!
