From Adam Oliver: [log in to unmask]
I am hosting an LSE Health seminar, sponsored by the Daiwa Foundation, that
looks at Japanese and UK health policy (some of which will focus on rights,
inequalities, etc), to be held at the LSE on July 30th. The Japanese system
is little known in the UK, and therefore I'm trying to forge some cross
country understanding and networking. The programme is below. I would be
delighted if you can attend. Please rsvp if you would like to come, and
please forward to anyone who you think might be interested.
All best wishes,
Adam Oliver
