OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This online talk brings together Isobel Grundy, expert and author of Lady Mary Wortley Montag: Comet of the Enlightenment with Helen McShane, Professor of Vaccinology at Oxford University and Director of the Oxford NIHR Biomedical Research Centre, to explore the development of vaccine science from the 18th century to today.
Their talks will be followed by a Q&A chaired by the Curator of Trailblazers, Emma Yandle, reflecting on the legacy of Lady Mary Wortley Montagu’s scientific advocacy and the overlooked role of early women pioneers in the history of science, along with questions from the audience.
