Abstract
It is only recently that PPI has been seen as a key part of healthcare practice and some form of PPI has been almost universally adopted throughout the NHS in England. However, although it is widely recognised that PPI is important by a wide range of different groups, from activists and patient groups, professional organisations to government bodies, within this broad endorsement there are a host of unresolved issues: what is the overriding justification and value base of PPI? There is also uncertainty over what the role of the PPI contributor is or should be and what such roles contribute to decision-making? This paper will consider these issues and how these, possibly, competing rationales for PPI affect the assessment PPI activities.

Will the next pandemic be caused by H5N1 influenza?
Monday, 02 June 2025, 1pm to 2pm @ Richard Doll Lecture Theatre
The world is currently experiencing a panzootic of H5N1 influenza. Wild birds have carried the virus across all continents and an unprecedented number of mammalian species have been infected including humans. What will it take for this virus to go pandemic, and does the introduction of the virus into dairy herds in USA bring that one step closer? Wendy will discuss the current knowledge on host range barriers that protect us from more frequent zoonoses and pandemic from bird flu, and show how we can use this scientific knowledge to risk assess the current situation.
