19 May 2022 – We are proud to announce our Chief Executive officer, Dr Clive Dix BSc PhD HonFBPhS, has been appointed to the Board of the University of Birmingham’s flagship facility dedicated to translational health research – Precision Health Technologies Accelerator (“PHTA”).
Eva-Lotta Allan, Chairman of C4X Discovery, said: “Clive’s appointment to the Board of PHTA is a reflection of his many accomplishments and clearly demonstrates the high regard in which he is held by all within the industry. PHTA is dedicated to showcasing British science at its best, driving innovation and providing access to cross-disciplinary expertise within a hub for collaboration across the industry. At C4XD, we know that Clive strives to promote great science and truly supports the people behind the science, for the benefit of patients. His vast knowledge and experience will be invaluable to PHTA as they look to create a thriving environment that allows science to deliver future life changing medicines.”
Clive Dix, CEO of C4X Discovery, added: “As a result of the pandemic, life science research has been thrust into the spotlight and, as novel technologies have been developed in months rather than years, it is important that we harness this momentum and continue the pace of innovation in biopharma and medtech. Birmingham, with PHTA as its new flagship facility, is poised to deliver everything that academics, start-ups and enterprises require to conceptualise, develop, validate and commercialise their innovations.”
The Precision Health Technologies Accelerator (PHTA) is the University of Birmingham’s signature health and life science research facility, providing approximately 70,000 sq ft of state-of-the-art laboratory, incubation and collaboration space and was supported with funding from GBSLEP. Working closely alongside Birmingham Health Partners, PHTA offers access to a wide range of expertise in clinical research, clinical trials and health data, as well as opportunities to work with key opinion leaders across the academic and clinical spectrum. Its physical facilities will include wet and dry research laboratories; prototype development and small-batch manufacturing; business incubation space and flexible hot-desking.
