Technical Summary
The MRC Proximity to Discovery scheme awards universities funds to help develop new collaborations, and ways of exchanging knowledge and skills. The awards can be used to support activities that promote the value of academic-industry partnership, and enhance academic and industry researchers’ understanding of each other’s needs and capabilities. This may be through people exchanges, creation of technology demonstrators, showcase events, commercialisation workshops and ‘entrepreneurs in residence’ schemes. Such exchanges of knowledge and skills will boost the most fruitful collaborations between UK universities and life science companies.

PI Contribution | Initiated, organised and chaired by Professor Reynolds, the PtD: UK TREND atopic eczema stratified medicine workshop, built on the successful PtD: Rheumatology/Dermatology Theme week held in February 2016 and the development of an atopic eczema stratified medicine theme by UK TREND. This workshop presented an excellent opportunity to engage with key individuals and centres focused in atopic eczema research. |
Collaborator Contribution | The event was initiated, organised and chaired by Professor Reynolds who also presented at the event. Two further presentations were made by academics from Newcastle University. The contribution from Industry included staff time and expenses to attend the event, including 3 US flights (Abbvie), 1 European (LEO Pharma), and UK based staff travelling to the event. Abbvie estimated that this amounted to an in-kind contribution of £17,800. The British Association of Dermatologists provided staff support in the organisation of the event, and covered the expenses of some of the delegates. They will continue to work with us on future collaborations in this area. |
Impact | No formal outputs and outcomes at this stage, although it is planned that formal collaborations will continue as a result of the initiative, leading to a UK-wide consortium focused on stratified medicine in Atopic Eczema. |

Results and Impact | Hosted by Professor Reynolds, he PtD: UK TREND atopic eczema stratified medicine workshop, built on the successful PtD: Rheumatology/Dermatology Theme week held in February 2016 and the development of an atopic eczema stratified medicine theme by UK TREND. This workshop presented an excellent opportunity to engage with key individuals and centres focused in atopic eczema research. The significant unmet clinical need, discovery of FLG mutations predisposing to atopic eczema and particular sub-phenotypes, recent insight into other genetic and environmental risk factors and emerging biological therapies, means that atopic eczema provides an important paradigm for a stratified medicine approach. Moreover, the NIHR infrastructure and our established collaborations means that the UK is uniquely placed to deliver such an integrative and multidisciplinary project. We invited interested physicians, researchers, potential industrial partners, stake holders and patient representatives to be involved from the start. Our plans are to work together over a 12-month period to construct a credible case for support that would enable the formulation of grant applications. |

Results and Impact | UK TREND Atopic Eczema Stratified Medicine follow-on meeting (hosted at the British Association of Dermatologists (BAD) in London). This second workshop, convened to strengthen the work of the first workshop in specific areas, has resulted in more carefully defined work streams, and led to a greater understanding of the potential contributions from collaborators (including Pharma). Collaborations with industry were strengthened (both new and existing relationships); 7 fully engaged industrial partners attended, along with 3 patient representatives, and 18 potential collaborators from other UK Universities and the NHS. Five companies were represented - Sanofi, GSK and Croda (UK), LEO Pharma (1 delegate from Denmark) and Abbvie (3 delegates from US). Expertise was shared and feedback was extremely positive (93% of the feedback graded the meeting as 'very useful' 5/5 overall). The aim of the initiative is to develop a consortium with which to gain funding to further develop projects, and this is ongoing. |
