Health secretary Alan Johnson announced in March the identities of the first five academic health science centres in the UK, one of which is the result of a collaboration between Imperial College London and Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust. These centres are partnerships between world-class universities and leading NHS organisations, and this article examines the implications of their esta...

Since the passage of the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1993, there has been an increasing need to monitor environmental health trends that may be related to the rapid industrialization of the United States/Mexico border. We studied two counties on the California/Baja California border to obtain baseline data on trends in childhood asthma hospitalizations and two pollutants that aggrava...

Abstract The apparent contradictions of British politics in the early nineteenth century have long confounded historians. Lord Liverpool’s ministry (1812–27) vehemently, and often violently, rejected constitutional change. Yet it simultaneously implemented a raft improvements governance. We argue here that empire is key to resolving this conundrum. Particularly from 1822, Liverpool launched ove...

Individual crown condition of Eucalyptus gomphocephala was assessed using two classification models to understand changes in forest health through space and time. Using high resolution (0.5 m) digital multispectral imagery, predictor variables were derived from textural and spectral variance of all pixels inside the crown area. The results estimate crown condition as a surrogate for tree health...
