Academic Researcher of the Year 2007
Date:9/7/2007

Neil Marlow, Professor of Neonatal Medicine at The University of Nottingham, has been recognised for his extensive research into the care and treatment of newborn babies, particularly those born prematurely, with an award for Academic Researcher of the Year.

The award, by the Good Clinical Practice Journal (GCPj), acknowledges the critical role that academics and academic institutions play in drug development and clinical trials. It is given to the individual who has produced the most important piece of clinical research, resulting in a major new drug candidate, target or therapeutic approach for the pharmaceutical or biotech industries.

Professor Neil Marlow said: I am deeply honoured to receive this award. I am delighted that it has come to someone in perinatal and newborn medicine as it is an area where huge strides have been made through clinical trials to make childbirth safer for the baby and to improve the long term outcomes for some of the most vulnerable members of our society. I couldn't have achieved this without the support of a fantastic team of colleagues and co-researchers from medicine, psychology and many other disciplines in Nottingham and around the country. This is really a tribute to the dedication and application of the researchers who work in such a difficult field.

Professor Marlow has carried out extensive research into the care and treatment of newborn babies, particularly those who are born extremely prematurely. Throughout his career as a neonatologist, he has retained a firm research interest in outcome evaluation following perinatal adversity.

Among Professor Marlows current major research projects is the EPICure study, the first in the UK, to study a group of babies born extremely prematurely and follow them longitudinally through into adolescence. The results of this study, funded by the Medical Research Council (MRC), are helping to improve understanding of the many challenges faced by ba
