We are pleased to congratulate our colleague Fleur Boot on her new job in The Netherlands, where she will combine her work as an intellectual disability physician with a strong research component and will continue her association with ALL as an Honorary Research Fellow. Her research will be focusing on developing training programmes for fieldworkers on intellectual disability and health needs, including assistive technology. We also congratulate Fleur on being awarded a 2019 CAROLINE – ‘Collaborative Research Fellowship for a Responsive and Innovative Europe’ although she will not now be in a position to take this up. During her time as a Post-Doctoral Researcher at ALL, Fleur undertook field work in Ireland, the USA, South Africa and India; developed close working relationships with WHO in Geneva; and published a number of important papers in the area of intellectual disability and assistive technology.
