Richard says: “It was a privilege to join fellow leaders on the panel. Our conversation explored how regenerative medicine will change the future of surgery, which included reference to the AMELIE project. Thank you to my fellow panellists and moderator Prof. Charles Knowles."

Charles adds: “Bringing together global perspectives from clinicians, researchers, industry, investors and healthcare leaders is critical as we consider not only what is technologically possible, but how innovation can be translated, adopted and scaled to improve patient care.”

The AMELIE project joined the UCLH Research Open Day on 8 October 2026! From exploring regenerative medicine to testing knowledge with our “Poo or False?” quiz, we sparked conversations about science, incontinence and the barriers to seeking help.

Embarrassment and fear of judgement remain important challenges. Let's break the stigma and make talking about incontinence easier. #AMELIEProject #HealthResearch #IncontinenceAwareness

What people with lived experience of faecal incontinence after childbirth injury say about the AMELIE project and their condition:
"Life could have been so different" "Research like AMELIE means that there’s still hope for those who suffer with faecal incontinence that we can receive adequate and accessible treatment" "young women are still, all these years later, suffering from the same injuries ... hence my plea for more prevention, as well as treatment" "AMELIE could be a game changer"
