Many of you already know, Professor Tony Gershlick died on 20th November 2020 as a result of a COVID-19 infection. Tony initiated the EURO SHOCK Project as Chief Investigator and was the Scientific Coordinator of the EURO SHOCK Research and Innovation Action at the Coordinator University of Leicester. His loss is devastating to all who knew him and the broader medical and scientific community.

After consulting with all Beneficiaries of the EURO SHOCK project and the trial sponsor, all participants have unanimously agreed to keep the project going. The operational management has been re-organised as follows:
  • Trial management will be headed by Prof Marcus Flather of the University of East Anglia (UEA). Marcus has been involved in the EURO SHOCK trial management group from the start and has extensive experience of managing multi-centre trials.
  • Clinical aspects of the trial will be led by Dr Manel Sabaté of the Institut D’Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi I Sunyer (IDIBAPS). Manel has vast clinical experience and has also been a valuable member of the trial management group.
  • The Trial Management Group will continue to meet each week to ensure that the trial moves forward as planned
  • The Consortium meets each month to oversee all aspect of the Project
Many thanks to Marcus, Manel and everyone involved who have stepped up in this difficult time to ensure the project and trial can move forward.
