Using UK Biobank in the identification of liver disease - Dr Hamish Innes
Duration 0.1 days
This event is for Academics and PGR Students only


The UK Biobank (UKB) is a powerful and innovative resource for health research. It characterises half a million

middle-aged people in the UK in terms of their host genetics, standard biochemistry tests, health risk
behaviours and subsequent health outcomes. It offers tremendous and unique opportunities for liver disease
research. In this seminar, I will give an overview of the work I have been involved in using UKB data to study
late diagnosis/early identification of chronic liver disease. In doing so, I hope to illustrate the breadth and
power of the UKB data, but also provide practical information about how to access and utilise this fantastic
resource.

Speaker: Dr Hamish Innes, Glasgow Caledonian University

A monthly School-wide seminar series provided by external researchers will:
- promote learning of methodologies and research findings from other researchers
