Day 2 Times in GMT	GIANT Main Stage - Day 2 IN HONOUR OF MAIA MAJUMDAR Real world Face-To-Face and Virtual conference Maia Majumdar Maia is leading the way for an emerging public health field called digital disease detection, a method of using data from often non-traditional sources (like Google searches or social media posts) as a tool to identify health trends. The benefits of such strategies are huge. Being able to identify outbreaks early could allow health officials to respond earlier and potentially stop the next global pandemic before it even begins.	Conference Room 1 - Day 2 IN HONOUR OF GERTRUDE ELION REAL WORLD FACE-TO-FACE Gertrude Elion Gertrude Elion was an American pharmacologist and biochemist. Honored for her work in the field of treating diseases, Elion went on to share the 1988 Nobel Prize for her efforts in developing drugs used to treat serious diseases. Following retirement, Elion supervised the development of azidothymidine, an AIDS treatment that prevents pregnant women from spreading the disease to their child. She also devised the first antiviral drug to treat viral Herpes infections. Elion was also responsible for inventing an immunosuppressive drug key to organ transplants.

As part of the Life Sciences Industrial Strategy the UK government is committing to boost spending on R&D to 2.4% GDP by 2027 and rising to 3% with an additional £4bn invested in R&D since 2017.

Global imports of medical technology products into the UK was $5.1bn in 2017.

The UK's NHS and NIHR are aiming to work towards a more digitally enabled Research world.

The UK government has committed to deliver a dedicated life sciences scale-up investment programme, worth around £600m, through the British Business Bank.

Private sector investment in the UK life sciences has grown from less than €0.5bn investment to nearly €15bn from 2011-2017
