DoP professor named in New Year's Honours list

Matthew Snape, Professor of Paediatrics and Vaccinology at the Oxford Vaccine Group (OVG) before moving to Moderna in August 2022, has been appointed Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (MBE) for services to Public Health, particularly during COVID-19 while working at the OVG.

He said: ‘This is a such a wonderful honour, and I am delighted to receive this recognition. It is especially rewarding that this emphasises the importance of Public Health given the vital role that immunisation has in maintaining the health of the population. This work was only possible due to the wonderful team at the Oxford Vaccine Group, and my gratitude to my colleagues and friends there is profound and heartfelt.'
