Medical research was one of the cornerstone on which Newlife was founded. Over the years, Newlife invested more than \u00a316 million in over 300 individual projects at more than 80 research institutions across the UK. This pioneering medical research has provided real hope for the future, with more than 50 disease-causing genes being identified and new treatment projects funded. Newlife also offered a ten-year medical training programme which helped over 60 students get an insight into the world of research. While research is no longer a main focus for the charity, the legacy of Newlife’s pioneering research programme lives on.<\/p>\n

The Newlife Birth Defects Research Centre was opened at the Institute of Child Health in London, by HRH the Princess Royal, in 2012. It is Europe\u2019s biggest centre dedicated to research into birth defects, which is the number one threat to child health in the world today.<\/p>\n
