As a result of the recent AHRC call for peer reviewers, I’m pleased to announce that eight BU academics were successful in their application and have been asked to join the AHRC Peer Review College. These are:
Dr. Lyle Skains, FMC
Professor Michael Silk, BUBS
Dr Christa van Raalte, FMC
Dr. Ann Luce, FMC
Dr Carina Westling, FMC
Dr Rehan Zia, FMC
Dr Tom Davis, FST
Dr Huiwen Zhao, FST
Congratulations to all. This is a great opportunity to gain greater insight to AHRC and what they fund, as well as an important part of academic citizenship. 
The successful applicants have been invited to complete induction training prior to formally joining the PRC. This will give them an opportunity to learn more about AHRC strategy, policy and process, how to write effective reviews, and network with fellow PRC members and AHRC staff.
