Thirteen years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

I am honoured and delighted to be the recipient of the 2023 Roux Prize on behalf of the many colleagues whose labour I represent. I hope this motivates others to pursue a career in global public health.

Great question from _ last night that *everyone* should be asking about schools: "So, Joe, if it's not that hard to do, not super expensive, better health outcomes and better schooling outcomes, what's up, why hasn't this money been spent?"

Delighted to say I'll be giving a keynote International Union against STIs 2024. There has been a global resurgence of syphilis & the burden of congenital syphilis remains unacceptable. I'll be discussing major challenges facing syphilis control worldwide & new tools & approaches to tackling this.
