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.
Health economic models are crucial for setting healthcare priorities and assessing the financial value of interventions, especially given the limitations of randomised clinical trials (RCTs). Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading global cause of death, but prevention efforts often start too late. Long-term prevention studies are expensive and challenging, making epidemiological modelling, such as Mendelian Randomisation, essential. The health economic model for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (HEM-PPCVD) model will appropriately capture all costs and value health outcomes of existing and new health interventions and this approach will identify at-risk individuals early when we take into consideration the cumulative impact of modifiable risk factors, ultimately saving lives and improving access to preventive measures.
