Abstract
Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.
Technical Summary
The Confidence in Concept scheme is a key part of MRC’s translational research strategy and provides annual awards to institutions, to be used flexibly to support the earliest stages of multiple translational research projects. The award can be used by the institution to support a number of preliminary-stage translational projects. The projects supported should aim to provide sufficient preliminary data to establish the viability of an approach –– before seeking more substantive funding. It is intended to accelerate the transition from discovery research to translational development projects by supporting preliminary work or feasibility studies to establish the viability of an approach.

| Title | ICiC 6 - Bentley - Automated quantification of clinically-relevant features on brain CT |
| Description | We have developed imaging analytic software allowing for rapid, automated quantification of features on brain CT that facilitate management decisions. |
| Type Of Material | Physiological assessment or outcome measure |
| Year Produced | 2018 |

| Impact | Our method has been cited by an influential Government report, as an example of cost-effective medical AI technology that can improve clinical decision making and improved healthcare outcomes (Chief Medical Officer 2018). |
| Title | ICiC 6 - O'Hare - Clickable viruses |
| Description | This tool is a modified virus containing small chemical tags in its structural proteins. Such tags will provide extremely useful and versatile in many fields, but especially for the project here, in the field of novel vaccines. The aim, partly validated, is to tag these new virus particles in a completely specific manner, with desirable adducts that will inactivate infectivity while persevering immunogenicity |

| Title | ICiC 6 - Tate - Covalent fragment ligands for Rab27a |
| Description | A total of 56 derivatives from Series A and Series B have been synthesised, leading to an improvement in the REF for labelling Rab27a up to 140x compared to glutathione. These molecules are the starting points for on-going ligand growth/elaboration work either through secondary screening or PROTAC development. |
| Type Of Material | Technology assay or reagent |
| Year Produced | 2018 |
| Provided To Others? | No |
| Impact | The successful development of these tools has been a substantial factor in securing follow-on funding and studentships to continue the project beyond the duration of the current Imperial Confidence in Concept award. |
| Title | ICiC 6 - Tate - Methods for assessing reaction between covalent fragments and target molecules. |
| Description | New methods have been developed to assess the rate of covalent modification of a protein using a fluorescence anisotropy readout (rather than fluorescence intensity in the original QIT assay). This new method allows from more sensitive detection of labelling in more dilute protein samples. Secondary confirmation assays (intact protein mass spectrometry, peptide mass fingerprinting, differential scanning fluorimetry) have also been integrated into the QIT screen. These methods have allowed assessment of newly synthesised ligands at lower concentrations which are closer to those required for cellular assays. |
| Type Of Material | Technology assay or reagent |
| Year Produced | 2018 |
| Provided To Others? | No |
| Impact | These methods have allowed assessment of newly synthesised ligands at lower concentrations which are closer to those required for cellular assays and allowed for a more streamline and robust analysis of ligands. The development of these methods has been key in demonstrating the quality of our ligands and supporting future development of improved ligands, an important factor in securing follow-on funding |

| PI Contribution | The team from Imperial College London contributes in the development of the vessel detection and reconstruction method and subsequent avoidance strategy using Programmable Bevel-tip Steerable Needle system. The method will be based on the measurements of a laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) monitor that is developed by Oxford Optronix Ltd. |
| Collaborator Contribution | Since no commercial LDF monitor is suitable for the purpose of the SHINE project, Oxford Optronix is providing an upgraded version of their commercial, four-channel LDF system. This upgrade includes the ability to 'gate' reading from each channel, increased dynamic range in support of higher blood flow velocity, and a new type of LDF probe. |
