We are delighted that HSL’s Molecular Virology, Scientific and Research and Development Lead, Dr Paul Grant, has been awarded an MBE in this year’s honours list. His recognition “for services to Healthcare Science during the Covid-19 Response” is richly deserved.
His contribution to the collective fight against Covid has been immense. Over and above his day job, Paul has worked tirelessly to improve assays, and he was instrumental in creating an extraction-free PCR test that which has significantly increased our testing capacity. He has also shared his expertise widely including providing essential support to the Francis Crick Institute’s non-NHS lab.
Many congratulations to Dr Paul Grant MBE.
