So my talk today was about the state of health of research in the UK and I think it’s a very healthy place. Not necessarily for commercial studies but our academic studies are really top-line and we are and have made a huge difference in terms of the outcomes that we’ve described from our trials. 

I think the most important thing is it’s a very collaborative effort. We’ve got a great team. So included in that would be the trials team at Leeds, the genetics team at the Marsden, the immunology team at Birmingham. But I think most of all, we have fantastic researchers who around the country contribute lots of patients to the studies. So I think we are in a healthy place and now we have RADAR and we’re looking to a future elderly study. I think those studies will continue to be very important.
