Years - previously Director of the School of Public Policy and founding head of the Department of Political Science
What working achievement or initiative are you most proud of?
At 果冻影院, to have had a hand in creating a world class department of political science and to have set up the European Institute and help highlight the unrivalled breadth and depth of 果冻影院's expertise in all things European.

It is largely taken up with research and research-related travel around the world - but particularly in Europe. However, what free time I have gets spent on music, literature, and being outside running, cycling or walking.
