The Scottish Ambulance Service (SAS) and the University of Glasgow have entered into a new strategic partnership that will see the two prominent organisations collaborate in order to address key healthcare challenges. Focused on improving the health and wellbeing of the population of Glasgow, Scotland and beyond, as well as wider community and economic benefits, the strategic partnership will also see the SAS officially become a university NHS Board. Pauline Howie OBE, Chief Executive of the SAS and Tom Steele, Chair of SAS, met with Professor Jill Pell, Deputy Head of the College of Medical, Veterinary & Life Sciences, at a Glasgow ambulance station today (20 December 2022), marking the start of the important relationship between the two organisations. The strategic partnership will be rooted in collaboration, as the two organisations seek to work together on key areas including research and development, education and wider community benefits. Innovation in healthcare will be a key theme, achieved through working with sector-leading projects such as the University of Glasgow's Living Laboratory for Precision Medicine, an internationally leading programme supported by UKRI Strength in Places Funding.
