Accelerating the Reduction of Maternal and Neonatal Mortality: A Leadership Workshop, a collaborative effort between the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), the Maternal Health Task Force (MHTF) at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and the Center of Excellence in Women and Children Health/Aga Khan University (AKU). In this first edition of the workshop, we are privileged to have a distinguished group of lecturers, who are global leaders in maternal, newborn, child and reproductive health. They will share their knowledge, insights and experience with you on the current situation of women’s and children’s health and the most critical strategies that need to be in place to accelerate the reduction of maternal and newborn mortality and morbidity. While we are delighted to be joined by such a outstanding faculty, we know that much of the richness of this workshop will come from you, our first cohort of participants. You, as current and emerging leaders in this field, carry out the actual policy, programmatic and advocacy work that is needed to advance women’s and children’s health now, and will continue doing so in the settings that need it most. We know we will learn from your insights and experiences. Again, welcome. We look forward to an exciting and productive week ahead.

Since then there have been 22 recipients of the Medal, either paediatricians or scientists, or both, and I like to think that Sir James would have approved of the choice of each and every one of them.

Sota el rètol Montjuïc de Nit, nombrosos museus, centres d’art, teatres, jardins i recintes esportius, ubicats a la muntanya, romandran oberts al llarg de la nit i la matinada, proposant una variada i atractiva programació de lliure accés per a tothom. Escoltar un concert, veure un espectacle de teatre, prendre un bany, muntar a cavall o fer una caminada nocturna... Les nits d’estiu són un moment ideal per gaudir de la cultura i l’oci a l’aire lliure. Per això, afegint-se a les activitats programades a l’interior de museus i teatres, els espais oberts acolliran tota mena d’espectacles i activitats esporti- ves i lúdiques. La muntanya sencera bullirà d’activitat! La tardor de l’any 2002, París va celebrar la primera Nit Blanca, amb un gran èxit de públic. Brussel·les, Roma i d’altres ciutats europees s’han anat sumant a aquesta iniciativa amb posterioritat. La idea és sempre la mateixa: passar la nit en blanc gaudint de la més àmplia i innovadora oferta cultural de manera gratuïta, fent de la cultura un gran esdeveniment lúdic. Ara és el torn de Barcelona. Així que... ja ho sabeu: el 5 de juliol, tots i totes a Montjuïc! Jordi Hereu Alcalde de Barcelona 7 Barcelona participa d’un impuls cultural indiscutible.

In paediatrics as a whole he built up a department in which all system specialties were represented, so that Edinburgh now provides a model paediatric service. John Forfar has been one of the most prolific contributors to the literature of paediatrics and his papers cover a wide range from basic science to social paediatrics.

The first is that of infantile calcium metabolism, hyper- and hypo- vitaminosis D, about which he first wrote in the 1950s and which he has continued to study-most recently in Saudi Arabia.
