Having recovered from the challenges of our 5th IHCR conference in March 2020 -which saw us moving a 250-delegate conference in Sydney, to a wholly online conference within 5 days - we are back! The theme for 2025 is truly international – exploring and challenging the failings of health systems globally as they espouse reform whilst continuing increasingly complex, inefficient and outdated models of care, out-of-step with their community’s needs. Having moved from Washington to Brisbane then Sydney we are delighted to host the 2025 meeting in Cambridge - a fitting setting to explore evidence, innovate and network closely with global thought-leaders. Our Keynote speakers are exemplars in what can be achieved despite the many barriers to reform and will challenge and inspire us to influence change in our own sectors.

Central and eastern English elms are the most diverse in Europe perhaps because recolonization routes at the end of the Ice Age converged here and hybridization produced new forms. Previous books have included 1-8 species, plus sub-species hybrids and varieties. The latest flora (2018) names 62 British species, most of which are found in our area. They are distinctive in growth form, leaf shape, seed shape and in their associated insect species. Most still grow into large, handsome trees despite Dutch elm disease. This workshop will introduce elms, their history, ecology, genetics and associated wildlife and a new key to the 40-50 local species.
