Become a Member of Trauma Care ➡️ www.traumacare.org.uk/members Dr Hazeldine graduated from the University of Birmingham in 2007 with a BSc (Hons) in Human Biology before undertaking an MSc in Immunology in 2008, during which he studied the effect of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors on neutrophil lifespan. Dr Hazeldine then joined the research group of Professor Janet M. Lord for his PhD studies that investigated the effect of human ageing on the function of the innate immune system, focusing specifically on the cytotoxic activities of natural killer cells and neutrophils. Since completing his doctorate, Dr Hazeldine has taken his interest in innate immunity into the setting of significant trauma and burns, where he explores the short (hours-days) and long (weeks, months and years) term effects of severe injury on the immune system and how this influences patient outcomes. Via a collaboration with pre-hospital emergency care paramedics and the Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, Dr Hazeldine is currently the lead laboratory investigator of the “Golden Hour” project. This unique study requires blood samples from major trauma patients at the scene of their injury. Acquired within one hour of an emergency 999 call, the analysis of these blood samples has revealed novel insights into the immune and inflammatory response to major trauma, with evidence of systemic immune suppression detectable prior to a patient's arrival at the hospital. #traumacarewebinar #traumacare #traumainformed #bloodwork #cpd
