Health over the last 150 years in the UK and internationally has been transformed and this rapid rate of change will continue. Improvements in public health and the shifting demographic structure are altering the trajectory and frequency of disease. Advances in science including new drug classes, diagnostics and AI are changing what is possible in diagnosis and treatment. This lecture will consider the possible, and likely, direction of health over the next decades.
This Annual Sir Thomas Gresham Lecture was recorded by Sir Chris Whitty on 23rd June 2025 at Conway Hall, Holborn, London
Chris was Gresham Professor of Physic at Gresham College from 2018 to 2022, and Visiting Professor of Public Health 2015-2018 and again since 2022.
He is the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) for England and the UK Government's Chief Medical Adviser.
