Minimally Invasive Surgery & Endoscopy
St Mark’s Hospital Foundation supports the implementation of new technology in the field of colorectal surgery and the development of new, less invasive, surgical techniques to treat bowel disease.
St Mark’s Hospital Foundation is the only charity dedicated to funding research and discovery at St Mark’s which is enhancing disease understanding and tangibly improving patient care.
We help maintain the research infrastructure at St Mark’s by supporting the hospital’s world-renowned clinicians and bright research fellows, and the human resource and logistical framework associated with the St Mark’s Tissue Bank.
In doing so, we help support progress in areas including imaging and diagnostic screening, genetics and gut biomes, parenteral nutrition, tissue engineering, organoid research, and minimally invasive surgery and endoscopy.
The research we support is highly collaborative, as our clinical colleagues partner with scientists and laboratories throughout the UK and specialist hospitals from across the globe.
