NERVTAG established the parameters and brought together an academic team to add to their own expertise. This team was led by Oxford University Innovation Ltd. The title of the research project was "Development and evaluation of a tool for predicting risk of short-term adverse outcomes due to COVID-19 in the general UK population" and as part of this Oxford University Innovation Ltd developed the QCovid® model. The Grant award was published at the following link https://fundingawards.nihr.ac.uk/award/COVID-19-Risk Prediction Tool Oxford University Innovation Ltd were the owners of the Intellectual Property Rights for the QCovid® model, created following the Grant Award above.
