In addition to being a Fellow of St Catharine’s, Professor Morrell is the British Heart Foundation Professor of Cardiopulmonary Medicine at the University of Cambridge’s School of Clinical Medicine. He is a clinician scientist and Director of the new Cambridge Heart and Lung Research Institute.
His award was presented during the William Harvey Research Institute’s Annual Research Review, which this year was hosted online on 24 June.
