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.
Vaccine Queen: Lady Mary Wortley Montagu
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.
