Neil Smart was appointed as Chair of the Scottish Healthcare Technologies Group (SHTG) Council in January 2021. We talked to him about what attracted him to the role, including what he means by ‘useful’ evidence.

Andrew Seaton is the current chair of SAPG (Scottish Antimicrobial Prescribing Group). We spoke to Andrew about his experience working with SHTG and the impact of our work in supporting the expansion of OPAT services as part of health and care resilience and recovery post-COVID-19.

We asked Keith Park, Policy, Public Affairs and Campaigns Manager at MS Society about his experience of contributing to SHTG advice on stem cell transplantation for people with MS in Scotland.

We asked Professor Brian Kennon, Chair of the Scottish Diabetes Group, why he requested advice from SHTG.

My motivation is that our work helps to ensure the best health and care interventions are available to people when they need them. It’s great to know that our work has an impact.
