Awards and achievements


National NHS England coordination of clinical services-in 2001 was central to setting up the NHS England Highly specialised service for rare neuromuscular diseases which continues successfully to this day coordinating 4 centres in London, Oxford and Newcastle enabling accurate diagnosis and treatment in congenital muscular dystrophy, congenital myasthenia, limb girdle dystrophy and muscle channelopathies.
In 2006 he was a founding partner to establish the NHS England Highly Specialised services for mitochondrial diseases linking Newcastle Oxford and London centres which continues successfully to this day.
In 2012 he led an audit across 10 NHS Trusts in the SE of England assessing over 700 patient episodes and provided evidence that 40% of unplanned emergency admissions for patients with Neuromuscular diseases were avoidable and would if extrapolated across the NHS would save >£40m per annum. He used this data to make a case with colleagues to set up a specialised Neuromuscular Complex Care Centre at UCLH and raised £2m through charity fund raising to build and open the NMCCC.
In 2008 Hanna established the MRC Centre for Translational Research in Neuromuscular Disease. This has transformed the experimental medicine landscape in the UK for neuromuscular diseases and enabled many natural history studies and clinical trials. It established a National biobank of >5000 patient samples for research and has supported the training of over 34 clinical and non clinical PhD students.
Hanna established and is Director of a new MRC International Centre for Genomic Medicine in Neuromuscular Diseases in 2019. This £5.5m strategic award links 14 centres in India, Turkey, South Africa, Zambia and Brazil to advance genomics for patients and establish an international fellowship training programme.
He was voted best clinical teacher by clinical medical students year 2000.
He has delivered many keynote lectures and memorial lectures worldwide including the UK, (Goulstonian Lectureship to the Royal College of Physicians in 2003 Goulstonian Lectures), and the prestigious Ian MacDonald Lecture.
