Staff Profile

Kate Lanyi

Research Associate

Background

I am a Research Associate at the NIHR Innovation Observatory where I am involved in the delivery of horizon scanning and evidence synthesis projects. I have produced reports, briefings and dashboards for a variety of national stakeholders including NICE, DHSC, and NHS England to identify innovative medical technologies and areas of unmet need. I also conduct clinical effectiveness reviews of new technologies for the production of Technology Assessment Reviews (TARs) for NIHR to support the NICE technology appraisal process.


Prior to returning to the Innovation Observatory in 2024, I worked as a researcher at a health economics consultancy where I undertook systematic reviews to support clients undertaking the Marketing Authorisation process for their medical technologies. I have a particular research interest in the application of artificial intelligence (AI) tools to enable more efficient and automated evidence synthesis methods.


About the NIHR Innovation Observatory


The NIHR Innovation Observatory is a world leading health and care innovation scanning centre providing data-driven insights to foster innovation and equitable access to high quality care. We aim to transform health systems and improve population health by providing advanced data-driven insights that foster innovation and equitable access to high quality care. At the core of our work is the development of data-driven methods to identify, capture and synthesise intelligence on new health innovations. We develop and share cutting edge methods in horizon scanning, building capacity in the systems across the public, voluntary and industry sectors.

 

We deliver essential intelligence and insights about medicines and MedTech innovation to the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE), NHS England, the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), the NIHR, the UK Health Security Agency, the Department for Health and Social Care and industry - allowing these organisations to prepare for policies, regulation and frontline delivery for new, emerging and disruptive technologies.


Teaching
Currently I am involved in the supervision of an MRes project exploring how novel sources, such as social media, can be used as part of a mixed methods approach for rapid evidence synthesis.
