Congratulations  to:

Monika Kudlinska, for her transformative ideas showing how free-by-cyclic groups are much more badly behaved than fundamental groups of 3–manifolds, while also providing a collection of tools for their study which will have a lasting impact on the field.

Philipp Jettkant, for his versatility, great intuition and technical skill, including the use of sophisticated numerical algorithms, to address novel mean field problems with theoretical developments which will be of much wider interest.

If you are aged 18 to 55 years old, and in good health, you may be eligible to take part in the BiVISTA study to find a vaccine against typhoid and paratyphoid A fever.

Participants will be vaccinated with the new vaccine or control, and then exposed to the bacteria that causes paratyphoid fever. All study participants will receive antibiotic treatment.

All participants will be reimbursed up to £4585 for their time, inconvenience, and travel.
