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
Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection presents a significant global health challenge, characterized by substantial morbidity and mortality rates worldwide. Despite the existence of a preventive vaccine, current treatment options offer limited efficacy in clearing the virus, necessitating lifelong management. The diagnosis and prognosis of HBV heavily rely on its surface antigen (HBsAg). However, despite extensive research efforts, detailed high-resolution structures of HBsAg and its assembly on the virus envelope have remained elusive.
We have employed sophisticated strategies and advanced computational tools to uncover the near-atomic resolution structure of HBsAg and its assembly.
