The aim is to help doctors provide more effective treatments to patients, as cases of kidney cancer continue to increase due to an ageing population, rising rates of obesity, and the impact of smoking. Owkin’s tools and business extend beyond being able to provide insights for the future treatment of kidney cancer.

Thanks to the dedicated efforts of doctors, patients, carers, and healthcare professionals, people diagnosed with blood cancer are now living longer, with a steady stream of more effective treatments entering the market each year. 2012 – The 100,000 Genomics Project begins. This was an entirely new approach to DNA research.

And we're building this Data Commons, bringing in imaging data, genomic data, clinical health record data, which in Scotland is really well annotated already,” says McNeil. Through this work, a mutation was discovered in the lung cancer gene. All data is anonymised to protect patient confidentiality.

The cell line, called HeLa, laid the foundation for many groundbreaking discoveries, including vaccines for the human papilloma virus (HPV) and polio; drugs for HIV and cancers; gene mapping; IVF treatment; and more recently, for crucial COVID-19 research. Fittingly, it was also used to develop the vaccine against cervical cancer.

Another military man in the drugs business was Edward Robinson Squibb, who as a naval doctor during the Mexican-American war of 1846–1848 threw the drugs he was supplied with overboard due to their low quality. He was a pioneer of new methods in the industry, being one of the first to focus on R&D as well as manufacturing.
