Clinical Research Imaging Centre

Back to the Medical research page.

2010 saw the opening of a unique research imaging facility which will help researchers and doctors improve diagnosis and treatments for a range of illnesses.

The £20 million Clinical Research Imaging Centre (CRIC) is a collaboration between the University and NHS Lothian. The first fully-integrated imaging facility of its kind in the UK, it enables research into illnesses including multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia, cancer and heart disease, without the need for invasive procedures.

The Centre has been helped in particular by a very generous gift of £1.26 million by Mr Ronald Storey, who was left the life-savings of his lifelong friend Dr George Birtwhistle.

Supporting the Centre

If you would like to discuss supporting CRIC, contact Chloe Kippen on +44 (0)131 650 2232, email chloe.kippen@ed.ac.uk
