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
Professor Sophie Scott will address the links between perception and production networks in the control of human vocalisations, and how these vary during different kinds of vocal behaviour, including variation in speech production. She will demonstrate that current models of speech production, which posit a key role for error correction mechanisms in speech production are likely limited in their value, and also are that speech production and voice production may have more in common in neurobiological terms than we have necessarily assumed.
