Better Health Award: Our very own Dr Eva Galiza and the St George’s Vaccine Institute for improving access to vaccines and vaccine research and for championing inclusive research.🎉

Dr Eva Galiza and the St George’s Vaccine Institute for improving access to vaccines and vaccine research and for championing inclusive research.

Improving access to vaccines and vaccine research for everyone, from preterm babies to older adults, has been at the heart of Dr Galiza's work for nearly two decades. Through her leadership at the vaccine institute, she has championed inclusive research, working closely with pregnant women, new parents and underrepresented communities to ensure more people can benefit from advances in healthcare.

Alongside a dedicated team of nurses, researchers and administrators, Eva has helped build trust within communities, improve vaccine confidence and support pioneering studies, including research into protecting babies through maternal vaccination. Her commitment to equality, innovation and compassionate care has made a lasting impact on patients, families and the future of vaccine research.

Neonatal sepsis remains one of the biggest threats to newborn survival and healthy development worldwide. Tackling it demands research that is collaborative, adaptive and connected across sites and disciplines, which is what adaptive platforms like SNIP-AFRICA and NeoSep-ADAPT are built to deliver.

To mark World Sepsis Day 2026, join a free Penta Aperitivo webinar titled “Adaptive platforms for neonatal sepsis research: insights from SNIP-AFRICA and NeoSep-ADAPT”. Over 90 minutes, hear directly from the researchers and clinicians behind adaptive trials, clinical & microbiological surveillance, dose-optimisation studies, and long-term follow-up research, all working together to improve outcomes for newborns in resource-limited settings.

Are you Interested in Bettering our Understanding of Bird Flu?

Our research study needs the participation of healthy adults aged 18-55. Could you or someone you know help?

Bird flu can cause serious illness in humans. We are researching an available vaccine to help with the future of bird flu. Bird flu can cause serious illness in humans. We are researching an available vaccine to help with the future of bird flu.

Recruiting now for the PCV15-PCV20 Vaccine Study. 🎉

St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust would like to invite your child to take part in a study to help guide future changes to the UK infant immunisations. We want to enroll healthy children, who have not yet received their 2-month routine vaccinations.

Participants will have five or six visits at home or at The Vaccine Institute in St George’s Hospital and a phone call. Vaccinations, including the standard of care vaccines (6:1, MenB, Rotavirus, MMR or MMRV), will be given at four of the visits and blood tests to measure the immune response to the vaccines will be taken at two of the visits. Taking part in this study is voluntary and participants can withdraw at any time.

The SGVI team recently had the pleasure of taking part in the annual Little House of Science event at Marlborough Primary School, where Dr Aidan, Nurse Danielle, Clinical Research Coordinator Cagil, Research Project Manager Emily, and Research Assistant Melanie spent the day inspiring young scientists through a series of fun, hands-on activities.

Throughout the day, pupils explored the fascinating world of bacteria, viruses, and cells through interactive games and creative demonstrations that showed how vaccines help protect us from disease. They also discovered the remarkable story of Edward Jenner and the development of the world's first smallpox vaccine, learning how one scientific breakthrough has saved millions of lives.

It was a fantastic day filled with curiosity, creativity, and plenty of enthusiastic questions. We loved sharing our passion for science and helping to spark the next generation's interest in research and public health.
