Very cool to hear that Ashley Bloomfield will be the inaugural chair of the Public Policy Impact Institute at #AucklandUni!

The sainted Ashley Bloomfield is going academic for a while. He'll establish a new public policy impact institute at Auckland Uni's School of Population Health.

What an inspirational choice.
