Please join me in congratulating Jade Hooper who passed her viva voce today. Her thesis is entitled "Exploring Social Inequalities in Dog bites and Strikes Using Administrative Data Sources" and she was supervised by Paul Lambert (Faculty of Social Sciences), Tony Robertson (BES) and myself. Jade is a regular attendee of BERG/SHAIR meetings - she used to organise them! Congratulations directly to Jade please - jade.hooper@stir.ac.uk Hannah Hannah M.
