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.
Scientific progress is derailed by two human failings: a desire for positive findings, which leads to publication bias, and a tendency to notice and remember things that agree with our current viewpoint, which affects how we cite prior literature. Either one of these alone is damaging; combined they form a toxic combination that means that many ‘established facts’ in a field are not trustworthy. I will give examples of these processes and discuss how we might overcome them.
