OxTalks is Changing
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
The glycobiology of Guillain-Barre syndrome: from Alexander to Zika
16th David Smith Lecture. Join us in person or via Teams - e-mail carolyn.thackrah@pharm.ox.ac.uk for joining instructions
Hugh Willison is Professor of Neurology at the University of Glasgow. He has pioneered the global effort to understand the aetiological basis for the major cause of acute neuromuscular paralysis worldwide, Guillain Barré syndrome. His work generated a mechanistic model of acute immune-mediated nerve injury that has been adopted worldwide as the gold-standard. Recently he has been involved in the effort to understand Zika virus-associated GBS, studying epidemics throughout Latin America via European Union projects. Professor Willison is co-director of the European School of Neuroimmunology that has trained over 4000 young scientists and clinicians over 20 years.
