In this episode of the Respiratory Futures Podcast, we are joined by Professor Jenni Quint to discuss the launch of the new Respiratory Data Science Catalyst. Professor Quint highlights the importance of improving how respiratory health data is collected, linked, and analysed to better understand diseases like asthma, COPD, and ILD.

The Catalyst aims to transform the use of health data in respiratory research, enabling faster, smarter insights to support prevention, earlier diagnosis, and improved care.

Listen in to hear how this ambitious national initiative will support researchers, clinicians and policymakers in tackling one of the UK’s most pressing health challenges.
