Research Group: Cancer Group, Primary Care Unit

Project Description: Aims: To model accumulating demand for primary and secondary care diagnostic tests and 2WW pathways and consequences for stage at diagnosis, emergency admissions and deaths, in order to estimate NHS capacity and diagnostics requirements as the immediate impact of COVID-19 settles into routine care.

Other collaborators include Greg Rubin (Newcastle), Yoryos Lyratzopoulos (UCL), Stephen Duffy (UCL), Willie Hamilton (Exeter) and the National Cancer Registration and Analysis Service (NCRAS).
