OxTalks is Changing
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
Full-length single-cell RNA-sequencing: From short to long-reads
This is a hybrid event - with the speaker attending in-person and viewable on Teams.
Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) methods have revolutionized the way scientists study the cell transcriptome. In this field, full-length scRNA-seq protocols stand as the gold- standard for sensitivity. After testing >400 reaction conditions, we developed FLASH-seq, the fastest and most sensitive scRNA-seq protocol currently protocol available. In our most recent work, we push the boundaries of this protocol to study and quantify isoforms, leveraging the recent advances in long-read sequencing technologies. The result is FLASH-seq-ONT, a method that combines the high-sensitivity of plate-based methods with molecule counting and true isoform characterization on the Oxford Nanopore Technologies sequencing platform.
