On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Statistical and machine learning techniques are essential for contemporary microbiome studies. The increasing availability of spatial, longitudinal, and multi-omic profiling data is opening up new research opportunities as well as challenges for computational methodology. This talk will cover contemporary topics in microbiome data science and associated open science frameworks, with a particular focus on modeling spatial and temporal change in large-scale population cohort studies.
