Christopher Shaw (neuroscientist)
Christopher Ariel Shaw is a Canadian neuroscientist and professor of ophthalmology at the University of British Columbia. Vaccine research Shaw has done controversial research on the adverse effects of vaccines, including publishing two 2011 reports about the effect of aluminum adjuvants in vaccines. The World Health Organization's Global Advisory Committee on Vaccine Safety criticized the two 2011 reports, calling them "seriously flawed". The Committee wrote: "The core argument made in these studies is based on ecological comparisons of aluminium content in vaccines and rates of autism spectrum disorders in several countries. In general, ecological studies cannot be used to assert a causal association because they do not link exposure to outcome in individuals, and only make correlations of exposure and outcomes on population averages". Shaw has received nearly $900,000 in research funding from the Dwoskin Family Foundation and the Katlyn Fox Foundation, both of which question ...

This was largely due to the time Keelan had spent as a musician in Europe and Asia. Trade Secrets and ''The Future'' Dubious Brothers' one album, ''Trade Secrets'', was released on Shock Records in June 2002. It spent three weeks in the RIANZ Top 50 Album chart, reaching 24.

A number of New Zealand hip-hop identities featured on ''Trade Secrets'', including DJ Sirvere, Mareko (of Deceptakonz), Marcus (Native Sons) and ...
