OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Antibody and receptor recognition of emerging human pathogens
Prof. Ian A. Wilson obtained a B.Sc. from Edinburgh University (1971), D. Phil. (1976) and D.Sc.
(2000) from Oxford University, was a postdoc at Harvard University 1977-82, and joined Scripps
Research Institute as a faculty member in 1982. His contributions include structural
characterization of many key antigen recognition receptors in innate and adaptive immunity,
including over 550 antibodies and antibody complexes, T cell receptors, MHC class I and II, CD1,
TLRs, VLRs, NODs, etc. His lab’s current focus is on how antibodies recognize influenza virus,
HIV-1, HCV, SARS-CoV-2, Mpox, astroviruses, alphaviruses, and P. falciparum to aid in design
of vaccines and therapeutics. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of London, International Fellow
of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences,
