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
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
All are welcome!
