UK Biobank was conceived by Sir Richard Doll as a data repository to improve human health. His name was made by showing the harms of cigarette smoking and the tobacco industry, disrupting the image of what medicine should be. Not just caring for lung cancer or emphysema after the event, but preventing disease.
Twenty years ago, it was a crazy idea to scan 100,000 people with state-of-the-art MRI. Now it’s done, and everyone in the UK and the world can benefit.
Perspectum is proud to serve UK Biobank – the Taj Mahal of data science, a beautiful and ever-giving legacy to human science.
