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.
The first edition of Thompson’s famous book ‘On Growth and Form’ appeared in 1917. It has subsequently been regarded as a foundational work in mathematical biology and a revolutionary contribution to the field of morphology. Most existing literature credits Thompson as a lone genius who produced the 793 pages of the 1917 edition and 1116 pages of the 1942 edition. Thompson’s correspondence presents a very different picture of this tome as one arising from extensive and ongoing – perhaps sometimes unwitting? – collaboration.
