One Health is the approach underpinning the research done at the Edinburgh Medical School. The modern challenges that face not only the UK but the world in terms of the rise of chronic disease, the shifts in populations and the challenges presented by a population which is living much longer are common and the mechanisms underpinning them are common. The aim of the School is to bring the right individuals together to catalyse and create the opportunities to really develop exciting and cutting edge clinical and non-clinical research that makes a difference to people’s lives.

Supplementary material for paper "Time-resolved spectroscopy of fluorescence quenching in optical fibre-based pH sensors"
Abstract: Numerous optodes, with fluorophores as the chemical sensing element and optical fibres for light delivery and collection, have been fabricated for minimally invasive endoscopic measurements of key physiological ... -
Additional image (Fig 2) - Kinetic modelling and quantification bias in small animal PET studies with [18F]AB5186, a novel 18 kDa translocator protein radiotracer
This image is part of the dataset: MacAskill, Mark. (2020). Kinetic modelling and quantification bias in small animal PET studies with [18F]AB5186, a novel 18 kDa translocator protein radiotracer, [image]. University of ... -
"The genetic underpinnings of adiposity: from GWAS discovery to functional characterisation" extended supplementary data
Two extended supplementary tables, needed for the submission of a thesis in fulfilment of a PhD in Precision Medicine at the University of Edinburgh in 2020. This upload includes 2 files. The first file ("TableS1_iDXA_ ... -
Dissertation 2020 R Code
R code in support of University of Edinburgh Masters thesis "Racial Differences in the Predictive Ability of Apgar Scores: A Quantitative Analysis". The source data for the anlaysis was the National Vital Statistics Cohort ... -
Pervasive lesion segregation shapes cancer genome evolution
Cancers arise through the acquisition of oncogenic mutations and grow by clonal expansion. Here we reveal that most mutagenic DNA lesions are not resolved into a mutated DNA base pair within a single cell cycle. Instead, ... -
Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging predicts individual future liver performance after liver resection for cancer
The risk of poor post-operative outcome and the benefits of surgical resection as a curative therapy require careful assessment by the clinical care team for patients with primary and secondary liver cancer. Advances in ... -
Global burden of acute lower respiratory infection associated with human parainfluenza virus in children under five years for 2018: a systematic review and meta-analysis
We provide the datasets used in this study. The datasets include: (1) incidence rates of hPIV associated ALRI (see "ALRI" file); (2) hospitalisation rates of hPIV associated ALRI (see "Hos" file); (3) hospitalisation rates ... -
Global burden of acute lower respiratory infection associated with human metapneumovirus in children under five years for 2018: a systematic review and modelling study
We provide datasets used in this study in this folder. The datasets include (1) the incidence rate of hMPV associated ALRI (see "ALRI" file); (2) hospitalisation rates of hMPV associated ALRI (see "Hos" file); (3) ... -
Structural MRI: from Slices to Faces and the effect of defacing
Image (3 formats, png original, psd and jpg size and resolution interpolated and colour edited) of a reconstructed face from a series of MRI slices, along with various 'defacing' for pseudonymization. MRI data were obtained ... -
Birth weight associations with DNA methylation differences in an adult population
The Developmental Origins Health and Disease (DOHaD) theory predicts that prenatal and early life events shape adult health outcomes. Birth weight is a useful indicator of the foetal experience, and has been associated ... -
GenomeArtiFinder variant include list
Background: The loss of genetic diversity in segments over a genome (loss-of-heterozygosity, LOH) is a common occurrence in many types of cancer. By analysing patterns of preferential allelic retention during LOH in ... -
Dataset pertaining to the publication "Quantitative levels of serum N-glycans in type 1 diabetes and their association with kidney disease"
The files are comma separated and contain measurements for 46 N-glycan peaks on 1581 serum samples (corresponding to 1565 unique participants) from SDRNT1BIO and from a pool of healthy controls. N-glycan peaks are expressed ... -
Grid cells are modulated by local head direction
In vivo tetrode recordings from the medial entorhinal cortex of mice during open field exploration. This data set contains recordings from grid cells, conjunctive cells and other spatial cells. Please look at Gerlei_et_a ... -
Protein genome-wide associations from the paper 'Linking protein to phenotype with Mendelian Randomization detects 38 proteins with causal roles in human diseases and traits'.
Data in support of the manuscript "Linking protein to phenotype with Mendelian Randomization detects 38 proteins with causal roles in human diseases and traits". -
Dementia risk prediction model - definitions of variables
List of ICD-10 and Read version 2 codes used to define predictor and outcome variables for dementia risk prediction model. -
Global seasonality of human seasonal coronaviruses
Background It is speculated that the ongoing pandemic of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus could recur as seasonal outbreaks, a circulating pattern observed among other pre-existing human ... -
Exploratory use of fluorescent SmartProbes for the rapid detection of microbial isolates causing corneal ulcer
# Purpose # To explore the use of optical SmartProbes for the rapid evaluation of corneal scrapes from patients with suspected microbial keratitis, as a clinical alternative to Gram stain. # Design # Experimental ... -
Molecular Detection of Gram-positive Bacteria in the Human Lung through an Optical Fiber Based Endoscope
# Purpose # The relentless rise in antimicrobial resistance is a major societal challenge and requires, as part of its solution, a better understanding of bacterial colonization and infection. To facilitate this, we ...
