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
This session is an introduction to effective searching for scientific journals and papers beyond searching with Google, Google Scholar or PubMed. By the end of the session you will:

This event will take place in the Seminar Room at the Radcliffe Science Library, and is aimed at undergraduate medical students.
