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.

One of the longest-in-the-making and the oldest among Muslim countries, the Ottoman-Iranian frontier, from 1514 to 1914, underwent four centuries of evolution to reach its final form. At present, the modern states of Iran, Iraq, and Turkey share these boundaries that emerged from the conflation of numerous borders. In this talk, Sabri Ateş will examine the emergence and transformation of religious-ideological, geopolitical, and medical borders.
There will be an opportunity to ask questions.
Dr Zeinab Azarbadegan (University of Oxford) will chair.
