Including: Gabriel Scally, president of epidemiology and public health at the Royal Society of Medicine; Elias Mossialos, professor of health policy at the London School of Economics; Anthony Costello, director of the Institute for Global Health at University College London and former director of the World Health Organization; Allyson Pollock, co-director of the Newcastle University Centre for Excellence in Regulatory Science and Zubaida Haque, deputy director of the Runnymede Trust, among others.

Anthony Costello is definitely worth following on Twitter
