In this year's academic promotion round at the University of Birmingham, eight academics from the Institute of Immunology and Immunotherapy have been successfully promoted. The titles awarded to the promoted individuals are Professors, Associate Professors, and Senior Research Fellows respectively.
The introduction of the Birmingham Academic Career Framework introduced a new set of titles and a career framework with clear promotion criteria and a new points system to underpin this. Individuals who were promoted during this year's academic round were successful based on the excellence of their academic standing and contributions.

Our congratulations also go out to Dr Carmela De Santo who has been promoted to Senior Research Fellow within the Institute.
