OxTalks is Changing
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.
Accelerating Covid-19 Antibody Discovery Through Industry-Academia Consortium
The BioIndustry Association’s Antibody Taskforce is a world-leading consortium of biotech companies, charities and academia experts based across the UK who share a joint commitment to help fight the COVID-19 pandemic. Contributing their expertise and specialist resources, the team is working together to rapidly identify the most promising antibodies with the potential to positively impact the treatment of those affected by this devastating virus.
The goal of the Taskforce is to develop an antibody-based treatment for patients with COVID-19, which could also potentially work as a preventative therapy for high-risk individuals and complement the current vaccination strategy. As part of a global hub for the life sciences, the UK BIA Antibody Taskforce wants to truly make a difference to people’s lives.
