I would like to say thank you for her unwavering encouragement, advice, answers, and laughter, and for always making me consider: What would Agrippina do? A thousand more thanks to all the other teachers from whom I have had the honor and joy of learning, at Duke and beyond. I am so grateful for your wisdom and kindness over the years and feel lucky to graduate having been taught by all of you. My research would have been incomplete without the assistance of the special collections libraries and librarians I turned to in the past year. Thank you to the librarians at the Beinecke and Vatican Film Libraries, and of course, to everyone in the Duke Libraries. I could not have done this without you! I should note that I am writing these final pages not in Perkins Library or my campus dormitory, but in self-isolation in my childhood bedroom.

Don’t just carry on doing more of the same • The Trust is not averse to risk (but what about ERG panel members?) • Success rate for short-listing for interview is ~15-25% at Senior Investigator level (3-5 proposals shortlisted from each ERG) • Fewer New Investigator than Senior Investigator applications – an opportunity? • There are fewer applications overall for the second round, but ‘the bar will not be lowered’ The Challenge UoB has roughly 45 existing

  • Conference Ontyph Id
    10th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON TYPH ID & OTHER INVASIVE SALMONELLOSES April 4–6, 2017 | Kampala, Uganda 10th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON TYPH ID & OTHER INVASIVE SALMONELLOSES WELCOME April 4–6, 2017 | Kampala, Uganda THE WORLD NEEDS ACTION ON TYPHOID — BUILDING EVIDENCE AND REFINING STRATEGIES The Coalition against Typhoid, housed at the Sabin Vaccine Institute, welcomes you to the 10th International Conference on Typhoid and Other Invasive Salmonelloses. We are pleased to provide a forum for more than 300 researchers, policy makers, immunization managers and advocates to come together to share the latest developments and best strategies to reduce the burden of typhoid, paratyphoid and nontyphoidal salmonelloses (NTS) on communities around the world. The conference theme, “From Evidence to Action,” is timely as we prepare for the introduction of new typhoid conjugate vaccines. The research, evidence and ideas shared this week in Kampala will provide the foundation for global action against typhoid, paratyphoid and NTS. Together, we will review crucial developments to reduce the global burden of these diseases, including results from major surveillance projects in Africa and Asia, the potential of human infection models and strategies for countering antibiotic resistance. The program will also highlight outbreak control methods, exciting innovations in diagnostics, water, sanitation and hygiene strategies for prevention, and policy measures aimed at accelerating the implementation of these interventions. The coming availability of a new generation of typhoid conjugate vaccines makes this a pivotal moment for global action on typhoid.
