Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Andrew Robinson is a historian who has written more than twenty-five books, including ‘Einstein: A Hundred Years of Relativity’, ‘The Last Man Who Knew Everything’, ‘Genius: A Very Short Introduction’ and ‘Einstein on the Run: How Britain Saved the World’s Greatest Scientist’. He also contributes regularly to newspapers and magazines. Einstein’s blackboard is the Oxford History of Science Museum’s most famous object. Yet it tells us relatively little of Einstein’s relationship with Oxford and Britain. British science inspired young Einstein’s physics; in 1919, British astronomers made him world famous; in 1933, Britain saved his life from Nazi death threats by offering him sanctuary – first in Oxford, then in rural Norfolk.
Buffet reception at 19:00 – RSVP for reception: info@oxfordchabad.org
