The six are: Professor Robin Ali (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Institute of Ophthalmology), Professor Timothy Cole (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Institute of Child Health), Professor Anthony Dickenson (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Pharmacology), Professor Elizabeth Fisher (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Institute of Neurology), Professor Chris McManus (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Psychology) and Dr Tilli Tansey (Wellcome Trust Centre for the History of Medicine at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê)

The elections recognise these scientists' expertise and devotion to addressing key issues in health and wellbeing. The scientists will take their place alongside Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê's other 88 Fellows, reflecting the university's leadership in medical sciences.

The admission ceremony for the new Fellows will take place on 28 June 2007 at the Royal Society. The academy was established in 1998 to act as an authoritative body to promote medical science across traditional disciplinary boundaries. It is independent and is the only body representing the interests of the whole spectrum of academic medicine and related medical sciences. It spans not only clinical academic medicine, but also veterinary science, dentistry, laboratory science, and medical and nursing care.
