  • Update on the Expert Groups Ahead of the Preliminary Hearings
    UPDATE ON THE EXPERT GROUPS AHEAD OF THE PRELIMINARY HEARINGS To help get to the truth of what has happened in the most authoritative and transparent way possible, the Chair is appointing expert groups to advise him openly. These will cover the relevant fields: not only the clinical specialisms such as haematology, transfusion medicine, hepatology and virology but also medical ethics, public health and administration, psychosocial impact, and statistics. Using expert groups means that everyone will be able to see what expert input is given to the Chair. The reports of the groups will, as evidence, be fully open, accessible and transparent. Where there are significant disagreements among the experts, these will be tested, explored and challenged openly in the public hearings. The Chair welcomes suggestions, in particular from core participants, as to whether there are further experts he should invite to join the groups. Similarly he welcomes any offers of assistance from individuals who have recognised expertise to offer. The criteria for appointment to the groups are set out in the Statement of Approach: Expert Groups. Each expert will be expected to give their independent unvarnished views to help the Inquiry resolve the issues it is investigating. Formal appointments will be made after the preliminary hearings. Core participants will have the opportunity at the preliminary hearings (and throughout the Inquiry) to propose additional experts for consideration by the Chair. The experts who have so far agreed to join the expert groups are: MEDICAL ETHICS Richard Ashcroft is professor of biomedical ethics at Queen Mary University of London. He has a longstanding interest in biomedical research ethics.

However, grants are only score from the MRC subcommittee, which assessed the one aspect of the relationship. As important are the close performance of the Centre over its first term. Just as the working relationships between staff in the Centre and the work of the Centre over that time has been very much a Foundation, which sees our research increasingly used to team effort, so was the success of the renewal. inform Foundation strategy and delivery. The last few months have seen us start to drive through Despite its title, the Centre’s mission rapidly evolved to our strategy for the next 5 years. A crucial aspect of this encompass delivering innovative epidemiological analysis is to boost capacity in key research areas. It is therefore not only of novel infectious disease outbreaks, but also of my pleasure to welcome new academic staff into the endemic diseases of major global health significance. Our Centre. Xavier Didelot joined us last year as a lecturer in work on polio, malaria and HIV reflects this. However, the pathogen genetics, and our expertise in evolutionary and last few months have highlighted the ongoing relevance of genetic research will be further boosted this year by the our original mission to enhance preparedness and response recruitment of at least one additional member of academic to emerging disease threats.

Land Smith 2021 MELS ii Abstract Sina Queyras, in the essay “Lyric Conceptualism: A Manifesto in Progress,” describes the Lyric Conceptualist as a poet capable of recognizing the effects of disparate movements and employing a variety of lyric, conceptual, and language poetry techniques to continue to innovate in poetry without dismissing the work of other schools of poetic thought. Queyras sees the lyric conceptualist as an artistic curator who collects, modifies, selects, synthesizes, and adapts, to create verse that is both conceptual and accessible, using relevant materials and techniques from the past and present. This dissertation responds to Queyras’s idea with a collection of original poems in the lyric conceptualist mode, supported by a critical exegesis of that work.
