Life Sciences Industrial Strategy: Briefing with the House of Lords Science and Technology Committee

A strong life sciences sector can simultaneously benefit the UK’s economy and help improve the nation’s health. But who in the Government is leading the delivery of the Life Sciences Industrial Strategy? To whom are they accountable? What power do they have to harness Government departments and the NHS?

These are the just some of the questions explored by the House of Lords Science and Technology Committee’s report, Life Sciences Industrial Strategy: Who’s driving the bus?

Speakers:

Lord Patel KT, FMedSci, FRSE, Crossbencher, Chairman of the House of Lords Science and Technology Committee

Lord Fox, Liberal Democrat Peer, member of the Lords Science and Technology Committee

Lord Griffiths of Fforestfach, Conservative peer, member of the Lords Science and Technology Committee

Baroness Young of Old Scone, Labour Peer, member of the Lords Science and Technology Committee
