Cruickshank, President of the British Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology (BSCCP), Prof. John Tidy (BSc, MD, FRCOG) President-Elect of the British Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology (BSCCP), Professor of Gynecological Oncology UK and Dr. Andy Nordin, President elect of the British Gynecological Cancer Society Consultant Gynecologist/Gynecological Oncologist UK.
