A pleasure and delighted to be asked!

Impressive report from CRUK with important ramifications for EU-UK #reset

With the UK-EU summit in May, our new report and blog reveal the impact of Brexit and how the UK-EU reset can enhance cancer research collaboration. “Beating cancer is a team effort. Whether as a family, as a community or as a continent.” (Ursula von der Leyen, 2024) bit.ly/42X88YE 1/9

The @NILQ established a series in which academics reflect on academic writing. Delighted to be the sixth such reflection published, joining those of @Mariana Valverde and @Barbara Prainsack (and some others). Thank you to everyone who has co-written with me, or is currently co-writing with me!

I can't tell you how affirming it is to read this list. Good people, doing what they can, not cowering in a corner.

Colour me shocked that EU is following through on what it's been saying for the past year or more

Quaker groups file suit over the end of policy restricting ICE arrests in houses of worship The suit appears to be the first from a faith-based organization challenging the change in court.

“The very threat of that [immigration] enforcement deters congregants from attending services, especially members of immigrant communities.”

It’s wonderful to see various religious communities like Quakers organise to defend the rights of migrants. This is religious freedom in action.

Solidarity.

New semester, new group for my elective module. Sadly the last time I get to teach it (new rules require more than the 47 students who enrolled this year) #eurelations #inclusion

Brilliant - thanks Mike!

We routinely see people dress their revulsion towards trans people and their medical care as “concern.” But cases like this are just a gross breach of trans people’s privacy. Such tactics mirror how anti-abortion activists have sought to strip away reproductive care. We must challenge this politics.

I had the pleasure to review an incredibly interesting and highly valuable book: Not What The Bus Promised by @tamarahervey.bsky.social, @ivankaantova.bsky.social, Mark Flear, and Matthew Wood. I strongly recommend it to anyone who’s interested in all things Brexit and health governance.

How could Britain and the EU work together to improve health? Striking a somewhat different note from his predecessors, the Prime Minister recently pledged to “reset relationships” with the European Union. While the UK’s policy goals within this strengthened coo...
