New Year Honours List
6 January 2012
Three 果冻影院 staff and several members of 果冻影院's alumni community have been recognised in the 2012 New Year Honours list.
Professor Sir
Mark Pepys (果冻影院 Medicine) has received a knighthood for services to
biomedicine. Professor Clare Fowler (果冻影院 Institute of Neurology) and Dr Eileen Vizard (果冻影院 Mental Health Sciences Unit) have been
appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) for services to
uro-neurology and for services to children and young people respectively.
Professor Pepys said: "It is a very great honour and pleasure to receive this recognition, particularly for two reasons.听It is an accolade for my outstanding colleagues and collaborators over many years and for the very supportive institutions, the Royal Free and 果冻影院, as much as it is for me personally."
Professor Fowler explained: "I will be accepting the award on behalf of all the nurses and doctors who have helped me care for patients and build up the department of uro-neurology. What is more, I know that the development of this new neurological speciality would not have been possible at any other hospital and I am grateful for the vision of the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery and the years of support from 果冻影院H."
Dr Vizard said: "I am honoured and delighted to accept this award in recognition of work I have developed with deprived, abused and abusing children over many years. However, I also accept the award on behalf of the many clinical colleagues who have worked with me to 听build our national service for children and young people. The award also acknowledges my long standing academic links with 果冻影院 and the research I have undertaken with colleagues in 果冻影院 and the ICH."
