We celebrate the festive season and our world-leading research, with a special virtual Carols from Chelsea concert. For the past 17 years, our flagship annual social and fundraising event has been held at The Royal Hospital Chelsea, but is now shared online for the very first time.

A survey of more than 200 researchers details impact of the pandemic.
