Malcolm Macleod is Professor of Neurology and Translational Neurosciences and co-director of Edinburgh Neuroscience at the University of Edinburgh.  He co-founded the Collaborative Approach to Meta-Analysis and Review of Animal Data from Experimental Studies (CAMARADES) in 2005, and since then he has been at the forefront of the application of evidence synthesis tools to pre-clinical research. This has included using systematic approaches to selecting drugs; Living Systematic Reviews; evidence synthesis. He was an author on the Lancet Series on Research Waste, spends a day a week as an NHS Neurologist, and is a keen runner. Most of 'his' success can be attributed in large part to the work of others.
