That delay can impact the options available to patients.04 Feb 2026 11:19 +0000at://did:plc:3foe74t5faol7z22pvsrcj32/app.bsky.feed.post/3mdzqx5t2hc2shttps://bsky.app/profile/kings-bmeis.bsky.social/post/3mdkkbuj6qs2yA King’s researcher walks into a comedy bar...and discovers stand-up's hidden structures 👇 [contains quote post or other embedded content]29 Jan 2026 10:10 +0000at://did:plc:3foe74t5faol7z22pvsrcj32/app.bsky.feed.post/3mdkkbuj6qs2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/kings-bmeis.bsky.social/post/3mchhzpjyyc2gCongratulations to Amelia Moore, Glen Blake and Gary Cook, who have been awarded £42,949 for their project titled ‘Development of an improved method of measuring total body bone perfusion using total-body PET/CT’.15 Jan 2026 11:26 +0000at://did:plc:3foe74t5faol7z22pvsrcj32/app.bsky.feed.post/3mchhzpjyyc2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/kings-bmeis.bsky.social/post/3mbowj6qenc23We’re thrilled to announce that our Hospital of the Future exhibit was voted the most popular feature at #NewScientistLive2025, marking our fourth consecutive year of public recognition! 🏆 https://www.kcl.ac.uk/news/hospital-of-the-future-celebrates-four-year-winning-streak-at-new-scientist-live @newscientist.com05 Jan 2026 17:09 +0000at://did:plc:3foe74t5faol7z22pvsrcj32/app.bsky.feed.post/3mbowj6qenc23https://bsky.app/profile/kings-bmeis.bsky.social/post/3m7ztsltbys2nDo you want to make a difference in digital advancements of healthcare?
