Today, 1,413 active research studies are underway—ranging from early detection projects to personalised treatments—demonstrating the depth and ambition of the Trust’s research portfolio and its commitment to improving lives through research and innovation.

Through deeply human conversations, Medical Breakthroughs: The Research Journey brings to life the hopes, fears, and determination behind research progress. The series makes clear that research isn’t just about data and discovery—it’s about people, and the real difference innovation can make in their lives.

Dr Ai Lyn Tan, Director of Research and Innovation at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust said: “This podcast is about more than research. It is about the people—patients, researchers, and healthcare staff—whose lives are touched by medical research every day. Their courage, resilience, and passion are what drive innovation forward.
