Every year in England, over 400,000 women are referred to secondary care breast services via the breast cancer suspected two-week-wait (2WW) pathway. Of the women who attend the breast clinic via the current 2WW pathway, 6% are diagnosed with cancer; the remaining 94% are discharged from the service.
Congratulations to Robinson Fellow, Rory Finnin, Professor of Ukrainian studies, for receiving the 2024 Laura Shannon Prize in Contemporary European Studies for his book “Blood of Others: Stalin's Crimean Atrocity and the Poetics of Solidarity,”.
The jury described Finnin's work as one that “forges breakthrough integrations between Slavic and Middle Eastern Studies to open up and adroitly explore a largely understudied ‘contact zone’ of imperial politics central to the ongoing re-shaping of European conflict today: Stalin’s 1944 forced deportation of Crimean Tatars.”
