Following the suspension of promotions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences is thrilled to finally announce their return with the first round of this year’s promotions.
We’d like to extend our heartfelt congratulations to all of our successful colleagues; this is a fantastic achievement, made all the more impressive considering these exceptional times.
Professor Tom Walley, panel member on the 2021 Standing Committee and interim EPVC remarked,
“Congratulations to all those who were promoted. These awards acknowledge the wealth of talent and fantastic work underway in the Faculty, and are tributes not just to the individual but to the teams they work in. Many others are also undertaking excellent work and can be assured that the promotions procedures are now back on track”
