Four new short films were launched last night at an event to celebrate the second birthday of the Academic Health Science Centre (AHSC).

The AHSC is a unique kind of partnership between Imperial College London and Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust that aims to improve the quality of life of patients and populations by taking new discoveries and translating them into new therapies as quickly as possible.

Last night’s event showcased four films that illustrate the AHSC’s approach in action, which can be viewed below. The films show how patients from the Trust and beyond are benefiting from new tests, treatments and surgical techniques that have been devised by researchers at the College, working closely with their colleagues at the Trust.
