New members of our International Editorial Advisory Board Welcome to two new members of our International Editorial Advisory Board, Drs Jean Louis Demangeat and Trevor Thompson. Dr Demangeat is a specialist in Nuclear Medicine and Homeopathy with a particular interest in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance studies of homeopathic solutions. Dr Thompson is a General Practitioner and Homeopath with a particular interest in the Methodology of Case Studies. Brief summaries of their careers appear below. We welcome them both to the Editorial Advisory Board and look forward to their expert advice and support.
(1987) and, for 15 years, has been studying ultra-high dilutions using Nuclear Medicine Resonance (NMR). Author of over 200 scientific papers and conferences, Dr Jean-Louis Demangeat has gained acknowledged competence in his many fields of activity. Institution:

Dr Jean-Louis Demangeat Initially trained as a biochemical engineer, Dr JeanLouis Demangeat was appointed in 1970 as an assistant at the Institute of Biophysics of the Faculty of Medicine in Strasbourg, France. In parallel, he went on studying for a PhD thesis in macromolecular physical chemistry, which he passed in 1975, was trained as a medical doctor (1980), and became a qualified nuclear medicine specialist (1982). In 1982 he was appointed senior lecturer in Biophysics and taught mathematics, thermodynamics and medical physics at the Faculties of Medicine and Dental Surgery in Strasbourg and lectured on various specialised topics for post-doctoral students. Involved in fundamental research, his work focused on the biophysical aspects of protein-DNA interactions in the eucaryote genome, while his medical research activities were mainly devoted to nuclear cardiology. In 1991 he accepted a position as Head of the Nuclear Medicine Department at the Haguenau Hospital, he became more deeply involved in clinical activities, in the teaching of nuclear medicine and in image processing. In charge of the implementation of hospital regulations on radioprotection, he became interested in the interactions between ionising or non-ionising electromagnetic radiation and individuals. In parallel, with a conventional career in a university hospital, he took an interest in homeopathy, and its action mechanism, became a qualified homeopathic doctor
Dr Trevor Thompson Trevor Thompson is a GP and homeopathic practitioner who entered an academic career with a 2-year fellowship in the Department of General Practice in the University of Glasgow finishing in August 2000. As part of an MSc degree he completed a qualitative interview and focus group study into the empirical ethics of the ‘advance directive’ for end of life care. Recently appointed as a Clinical Lecturer in the Division of Primary Care within the University of Bristol, he is planning a PhD programme investigating both the clinical effectiveness of homeopathic medicine and the sociological and philosophical implications of its continued growth within the NHS. He has also researched the role of the arts in healthcare and plans to take this forward along with interests in IT and the provision of effective learning experiences for medical and homeopathic students.
