SUMMARY:Open Call for evidence: 10 Year Workforce Plan
DESCRIPTION:The NHS stands at a historic crossroads and the choice is stark: continue like this\, making tweaks to an increasingly unsustainable model\, or take a new course and reinvent the NHS through transformational changes that will guarantee its sustainability for generations to come. The government’s 10 Year Health Plan for England chose the latter. \nThe DHSC is running an engagement exercise on the NHS 10 year plan and specifically on healthcare scientists and their workforce. You are invited to submit case studies and examples to support the ongoing strategy work. Information on the request and how to submit is available HERE \n Submission deadline: 11:59pm 7 November 2025.

SUMMARY:HEALTHCARE SCIENCE IN SCOTLAND: REDEFINING OUR WORKFORCE
DESCRIPTION:This publication sets out how we will now define our healthcare science (HCS) workforce in\nScotland\, enabling it to be more visible and valued so that it can be better considered and\nutilised in the planning and delivery of services and therefore support improved outcomes for\nour population. \n\nHealthcare scientists play a vital role in delivering safe\, effective\, and innovative care across\nNHS Scotland. This paper details the areas where healthcare science can be better aligned\nwith wider health policy\, such as the Scottish Government’s Service Renewal Framework. It\nrecognises the role of the profession in advancing prevention\, digital transformation\,\npersonalised care\, and population health planning and underlines the need for greater\nvisibility and understanding of the profession to deliver on the commitments for NHS\nrenewal. \n\nView Paper HERE

SUMMARY:June Edition of National Physiological Science Transformation Programme Brief
DESCRIPTION:National Physiological Science Data Collections \nOur national Gastrointestinal (GI) Physiology and Urodynamics data collections are open until Friday 4th July.  To date\, 46% of GI  and 26% of Urodynamic services have completed or made a start. We encourage all services to participate. \n  \nDuring May and June 2025\, we have hosted a number of webinars to share analysis from the Cardiac Science\, Respiratory and Sleep\, Vascular Sciences and Neurophysiology data collections.  A webinar to share the key messages from the audiology stocktake is scheduled for September 2025. \nOur physiological science dashboard can be accessed from here. If you would like to request access to view our dashboard\, please complete this form – Dashboard access form (please allow up to 10 days for the team to grant access). \nOur physiological science reporting dashboard now includes data collected from the adult and paediatric audiology collections. \nThe Ophthalmic Diagnostics and Imaging national collection will be open from Monday 15th September to Friday 10th October 2025.  Work is currently in progress to identify contacts who will be submitting data on behalf of NHS trusts.  We’ll be hosting a webinar on the 27th August to provide a technical walkthrough of the data collection and share more information about the data that is being requested. \n  \nPlease refer to our FutureNHS Collaboration Platform for information\, webinar recordings and updates relating to our national data collection  – https://future.nhs.uk/PhysiologicalMeasurements/groupHome \n  \nCapital Funding \nIn April 2025\, ICB’s submitted outline capital investment proposals for diagnostic services\, against the national capital allocation to support the return to achieving NHS constitutional standards. Approximately £29 million of capital investment for Physiological Science services has been indicatively approved – with business cases now being developed for this investment to be allocated to provider organisations. Trusts are encouraged not to delay submitting their business cases for physiological science equipment and facilities schemes\, so that funding can be released and equipment purchased. \n  \n  \n  \nPaediatric Audiology Services \nRecent national communication to ICB’s asks them to submit updated trajectories on the recall and reassessment of those patients identified as requiring a follow-up assessment. The letter also asks ICB’s and provider organisations to support mutual aid between providers in a system or Network. \nNational Audiology Improvement Collaborative \nExpressions of interest are now open for the second Audiology Improvement Collaborative\, which will commence in September 2025. Up to eight providers will be supported by NHS Elect to use a range of improvement methodology and local data to identify\, develop and test improvements within their service. The expression of interests will close on the 28th July 2025. \nListen to the recording of the webinar here. Expressions of interest can be submitted using this form. \nNHS Elect are hosting a shared learning webinar on the 8th July which will include learning from the providers who participated in the first Audiology Improvement Collaborative. Register here: \n  \nPhysiological Science Networks \nWe participated in a diagnostic workshop looking at how diagnostic networks including Physiological Science Services can become sustainable in the future. There is still lots to do to show the benefits of integrating physiological science services within Networks.

SUMMARY:PhD Studentship
DESCRIPTION:Competition Funded PhD Project (Students Worldwide) \nManchester Metropolitan University and University Hospitals of Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust are sponsoring a PhD studentship\, to develop methodology to measure Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers in the plasma of obstructive sleep apnoea patients. \nAlzheimer’s disease (AD) is pathologically defined by the abnormal accumulation of extracellular proteins/peptides such as amyloid beta (Aβ) and tau in the brain\, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood. Recent methodological advances have enabled the development and validation of plasma biomarkers that are expected to simplify AD diagnosis. The quality and quantity of sleep\, which is significantly disrupted in obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) patients\, has been associated with changes in blood AD biomarker levels in cross-sectional studies. Furthermore\, pathological levels of AD biomarkers have been described in CSF of OSA patients\, suggesting that sleep apnoea is a potential risk factor for AD. \nClick Here For More Information
