Adieu to our Provost Professor Martin Elliott

Provost, Professor Martin Elliott

This week we bid fond farewell to Professor Martin Elliott as he moves on from his role as Provost of Gresham College.

Martin, also a Professor Emeritus of Cardiothoracic Surgery at UCL and a former Gresham Professor of Physic, has led our Academic Team since 2022.

We are tremendously grateful for his dedicated leadership and contributions to the College and look forward to a continuing relationship in the years ahead.

Gresham Executive Director, Richard Smoth OBE, said: “The College would like to thank Professor Elliott for ten years of service to the College as the 31st Professor of Physic, a Fellow and more recently Provost.  His Commitment to public learning of the highest quality has underpinned our work and all at the College wish him the very best for the future.”

Martin is succeeded in the interim by Gresham Emerita Professor Sarah Hart as Acting Provost.
