Great to host local journalists to tell the story and celebrate 10 years of UK Biobank's Imaging Project!🧠

10 years, 85,000 participants and 850 million images so far. Since 2014 our imaging project has scanned the brains, hearts, bones & abdomens of our volunteers and powered more than 1,000 publications and counting, all aiming to advance health research!

Scientist say the UK Biobank in Stockport, which has stored the DNA of more than half a million volunteers over the past decade, has offered a “revolutionary” study of how the body ages.
