ISLAMABAD: The Royal Commonwealth Society has announced the opening of entries for the prestigious Queen’s Commonwealth Essay Competition until 30 June 2023.

Every year, thousands of young people take part in the competition, the world’s oldest international writing competition aimed to recognise achievement, elevate youth voices and develop key skills through creative writing, said a news release on Tuesday.

This year, the essay competition asked entrants to explore the power young people hold within the global community and consider how this power can be harnessed to make a meaningful impact in the world.

This focus coincides with the 50th anniversary of the Commonwealth Youth Programme, and the Commonwealth Heads of Government declaring 2023 a year dedicated to youth-led action for sustainable and inclusive development.

Essays are submitted in two categories — a 'senior category' born between 1 July 2004 and 30 June 2009 and a ‘junior category’ born on or after 1 July 2009.

All successful entries will receive a certificate of participation. Whereas, the top two winners from each category will be awarded a trip to London for a week of educational and cultural events, culminating in a special awards ceremony at a royal palace.

Pakistani youth have done extremely well in recent years with Zahra Hussain, a student of Lahore Grammar School International, coming first in the senior category in 2018 and Zainab Nawaz, an eighth grade student, achieving a bronze award in the junior category in 2022.

"The Queen’s Commonwealth Essay is a fantastic opportunity for young Pakistanis to engage with the Commonwealth and sharpen their writing skills to become the future leaders of tomorrow," said Zoë Ware, the acting deputy head of mission at the British High Commission.

“Sixty per cent of the Commonwealth’s 2.5 billion people are under the age of 30. This young demographic represents a dynamic ‘youth force for change’, made up of exceptional young people who are increasingly involved in advocacy, decision-making and action. I hope to see some winning essays from young Pakistanis in this year’s competition,” she added.

Third International Summit on Human Genome Editing

abstract image of genome data collection

The Third International Summit on Human Genome Editing took place on 6-8 March 2023 at the Francis Crick Institute, London UK.

Building on previous events held in Washington, DC ( 2015 ) and Hong Kong ( 2018 ), the London meeting continued the global dialogue on somatic and germline human genome editing. Major themes for discussion included developments in clinical trials and genome editing tools such as CRISPR/Cas9, as well as social, ethical and accessibility considerations these scientific developments entail.

The three-day Summit was organised by the Royal Society, the UK Academy of Medical Sciences, the US National Academies of Sciences and Medicine and The World Academy of Sciences. The Summit’s Organising Committee , chaired by Professor Robin Lovell-Badge FMedSci FRS, released a statemen t based on the Summit discussions.

Dr Robin Lovell-Badge FMedSci FRS, Group Leader and Head of the Division of Stem Cell Biology and Developmental Genetics, The Francis Crick Institute

Robin Lovell-Badge is interested in decisions of cell fate, especially within the context of sex determination in mammals. Robin discovered that a single gene, Sry, present on the Y chromosome, sets cells of the reproductive organs on the path to becoming male — famously propelling ‘Randy’, a female mouse he engineered to develop into a male, to front-page news.

His work also includes a focus on stem cells. These self-renewing cells have the potential to transform into any other cell type and hold promise for treating a wide range of diseases. By studying the genes that confer these special abilities, Robin is examining how the decisions that determine the ultimate role of a cell in the body are made.

Some of Robin’s research is conducted using mouse models, which he compares with findings in chicks to add an evolutionary perspective. Consequently he is very interested in the public perception of using animals in research. He also advises on policy relating to stem cells and their use in medical treatments.

Born in Yaoundé, Cameroon, Ambroise Wonkam, MD PhD grew up witnessing the pain, disability, and death caused by sickle cell disease – among family friends, classmates, and colleagues. Very early in his medical education that experience led him to cell biology and, later, to genetics. Focusing on sickle cell disease seemed, then, almost like a calling. With more than 130 peer-reviewed publications on sickle cell disease, supported by a grant from the NIH and Wellcome Trust over the past ten years, Wonkam has won multiple prizes, including the prestigious 2020 Alan Pifer Award. In 2014, he won the competitive Clinical Genetics Society International Award from the British Society of Genetic Medicine. He is the president of the African Society of Human Genetics.

Dr. Creary is an interdisciplinary social scientist who has worked with the sickle cell and bleeding disorder community as a scientist, policy maker, and public health researcher for over 20 years. Her primary research interests include how science, culture, and policy intersect, particularly around ethical, legal, and social concerns (ELSI). Through a health equity lens and using historical and ethnographic methods, she uses sickle cell disease as a case to investigate simultaneous constructions of race and science via the development of policy. Her anti-racist research also theorizes how embodied outcomes of accumulated injustice and exclusion inhibit the receipt of justice even via well-meaning programs, policies, and technologies designed to build equity. She speaks on topics of justice, racism and anti-racism in health and biomedicine, COVID-19, identity politics in health, and bioethics.  She has been published in Social Science and Medicine, BioSocieties, Law, Medicine, and Ethics, The American Journal of Bioethics, and JAMA Open Network.

Mayana Zatz

Brazilian Association of Muscular Dystrophy, University of São Paulo

Mayana Zatz holds a PhD in Human and Medical Genetics. She is Professor of Genetics at the University of São Paulo and the Director of the Human Genome and stem-cell center, which has three aims: basic research, technology transfer and education. The Centre has been visited by more than 100,000 patients and relatives with genetic disorders for genetic counselling by a multidisciplinary team (including diagnosis, genetic testing in at-risk relatives, management orientation and follow-up) for two main purposes: patients contributing to new researches and new findings helping patients. Mayana’s research focus has been neuromuscular disorders and ageing. More recently she has been involved with the oncolytic properties of zika virus (transforming our enemy into an ally against brain tumours) and currently also coronavirus pandemic (aiming to identify genetic variants associated to resistance against Sars-Cov-2).

She published over 400 peer-reviewed papers which were cited more than 22,500 times. In 2001 she was awarded the L´Oréal/Unesco prize for “Women in Sciences” representing Latin America and in 2004 the TWAS Prize in Basic Medical Sciences (Academy of Sciences for Developing countries).

Most importantly, since the beginning of Mayana’s career she has been involved in genetic counselling and ethical issues related to scientific advances. In 2005 in the Brazilian Congress Mayana defended the approval of a Bill allowing research with embryonic stem cells which was definitively approved by the Supreme Court in 2008. The Zatz group is using CRISPR technology in cell lines derived from patients with different neuromuscular disorders. She has been faced with many questions raised by the patients’ families regarding the clinical use of CRISPR technology for treating neuromuscular disorders. Mayana published a book in 2011 (not translated to English) called Gen ETHICS: choices our grandparents did not have. This book, intended for lay people, has been adopted by many schools and discussed with young students. Mayana believes that the possibility of gene editing opens new highly relevant questions that need to be discussed with society and she is very honoured to participate in these discussions.

My first two books focused on the global political economy of the life sciences and biomedicine, with an empirical focus on the United States and India. My first book, Biocapital: The Constitution of Postgenomic Life (Duke, 2006), is a multi-sited ethnography of genomics and post-genomic drug development marketplaces in the United States and India. My second book, Pharmocracy: Knowledge, Value and Politics in Global Biomedicine (Duke, 2017) elucidates the political economy of global pharmaceuticals as seen from contemporary India. Empirically, Pharmocracy traces the decade-long trajectory of pharmaceutical politics after India’s harmonization of clinical trials and intellectual property regimes with globally mandated norms in the mid-2000s. It thereby considers two domains of biomedical politics together, one concerning clinical trials and the other concerning intellectual property and access to medicines. Theoretically, Pharmocracy provokes questions about how value, politics and knowledge come to be related to one another in contemporary global pharmaceutical economies in ways that put both health and democracy at stake.

Francoise Baylis

Françoise Baylis

Dalhousie University, Canada

Françoise Baylis CM, ONS, PhD, FRSC, FCAHS, FISC is Distinguished Research Professor Emerita, Dalhousie University, Canada. She is a philosopher whose innovative work in bioethics, at the intersection of policy and practice, has stretched the boundaries of the field. Her work challenges us to think broadly and deeply about the direction of health, science and biotechnology. It aims to move the limits of mainstream bioethics and develop more effective ways to understand and tackle public policy challenges.

Baylis is the author of Altered Inheritance: CRISPR and the Ethics of Human Genome Editing . Her book won the 2020 PROSE Award in Clinical Medicine. Natalie de Souza writes in The New York Review of Books “She offers an authoritative, comprehensive guide to the ethical issues around CRISPR, and her central message is clear: heritable human genome editing shouldn’t be treated as inevitable, and the decision to undertake it should be a collective one.” Adam Hayden writes in Science “Commitments to justice, responsibility, accountability, and consensus building are features of a socially just science and bioethics. Toward this end, Altered Inheritance is a foundational tool in the path ahead.”

Baylis was a member of the Planning Committee for the First and Third International Summit on Gene Editing (2015 and 2023), a member of the WHO Expert Advisory Committee on Developing Global Standards for Governance and Oversight of Human Genome Editing (2019-2021), and a member of WHO Working Groups on a Global Guidance Framework for the Responsible Use of the Life Sciences (2021). She is a member of the Governing Board of the International Science Council and Vice-Chair of its Committee for Freedom and Responsibility in Science.

Baylis is a member of the Order of Canada and the Order of Nova Scotia, as well as an elected Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences, and the International Science Council. In 2022, she was awarded the Killam Prize for the Humanities, Canada’s most distinguished award for humanities scholars.

As part of the People’s Health Movement (PHM) – an international coalition of academic and civil society health activists working to promote ‘Health for All – and founder of Sama Resource Group for Women & Health ( www.samawomenshealth.in), she has been working on various issues surrounding public health including, strengthening health systems, health policy,  sexual and reproductive health, reproductive and biotechnologies, clinical trials and access to medicines, conflict and health through research, policy advocacy and building solidarity between health and other social movements. 

Her work at local, regional, national as well as global levels has helped to develop an understanding of health through an intersectionality lens encompassing gender, caste, class, race and rights perspectives, as also the social and political pathways towards better health care and social determinants of health.

Her research experience extending over 25 years has been at the intersections of leading implementation research in a broad range of areas of public health, maternal health, sexual and reproductive health, access to medicines, research ethics, conflict and health as well as the creation of research knowledge resources towards health policy and programme implementation outcomes. This engagement also helped to understand the region-specific challenges and gaps in the context of access to universal health care, including pandemics and public health, sexual and reproductive health etc.

Sarojini has co-organised national and international conferences, and meetings on women's health, the world bioethics conference (WBC), the Feminist Bioethics Conference  (FAB)and the People’s Health Assembly-4 (PHA). Recognising her work on bioethics, access to medicines and clinical trials, the Indian Council for Medical Research (ICMR), a premier research institute in India,  has appointed her as a member of the Central Ethics committee on Biomedical Research on Human Participants. As a member of the ICMR committee, she was actively engaged in examining the ethics of biomedical research and was involved in developing the guidelines published in 2017. 

Having been a part of many debates around “New Vaccines, why, whom when and How”, she developed a nuanced understanding of vaccine development and critical issues around ethics, human rights, access, and affordability and is currently engaged in developing a feminist framework to address pandemics from an intersectionality lens.

Her work on medical and reproductive technologies, ethics and clinical trials has been published in many international journals.
She was the Visiting Scholar at the University of Massachusetts and was awarded as Social Justice Policy Practitioner to the Five Colleges at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. She was also awarded an Academic in Residence at the University of Austin Texas, 20173). 

She has been invited to speak at the Harvard University, Boston University Schools of Public Health, MIT, UMASS, Stanford Univ, Univ of Austin Texas in the US; the London School of Economics and the University of Edinburgh in the UK; and Charite Medical College, Berlin and Goettingen University, Global Labour University in Germany. (2011, 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2019) also at the UN, WHO and PMAC.

Currently, she is the Advisory for the British Medical Journal (BMJ) patients panel and the coordinator of the Health for All campaign for PHM which is on a voluntary basis.

Another research topic in his laboratory is investigating novel germ line gene therapy approaches that would allow repairing gene defects in gametes or early preimplantation embryos and thus prevent passage of thousands of heritable genetic disorders from parents to their children. Dr. Mitalipov’s laboratory is exploring applications of gene editing and gene replacement strategies in preclinical and clinical studies demonstrating feasibility, efficacy and long-term safety of these approaches.

As part of other ongoing germ line gene therapy projects, his laboratory pioneered the concept of mitochondrial replacement therapy (MRT) to prevent the transmission of pathogenic mtDNA mutations from mothers to their children. This work has been initially developed and tested in a nonhuman primate model and more recently extended to clinical trials that resulted in birth of healthy children.
