🐙Pleased to share this update from the Octopus clinical trial.

The Anne Rowling Clinic is the only recruitment site for the trial in Scotland, so it's good to see progress being made. We'd also like to recognise the contribution of the researchers, clinical teams and, most importantly, the people taking part in the trial. 🙏🏻

We are proud to be part of this important work.

🚴‍♀️ WHAT AN INCREDIBLE CHALLENGE! 💙

We’re delighted to be supporting Lynsey Lawrie, who is taking on an amazing Scottish Island Cycle challenge to raise funds for MS research at the Anne Rowling Clinic, alongside St Columbus Hospice Care.

Every mile Lynsey cycles and funds raised will help support vital research into multiple sclerosis. At the Anne Rowling Clinic, our research aims to better understand MS and develop new ways to improve the lives of people living with the condition.

We’re incredibly grateful to Lynsey for choosing to support our work, and to everyone who has already donated and cheered her on.

👏 Please join us in supporting Lynsey’s incredible effort. Every donation, no matter the size, can make a difference.

Earlier this summer, we were pleased to welcome Edinburgh BioQuarter Summer Interns to the Anne Rowling Clinic for an interactive workshop on clinical trials.

The session offered an insight into how clinical research is designed and delivered, while showcasing the many career opportunities within research.

Thank you to everyone who helped make the day a success, and to the interns for their enthusiasm and engagement. 🙏🏼
