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.
Wireless Wytham: intelligent tools and novel science
Wireless Wytham: intelligent tools and novel science // Professor Tim Coulson, Department of Zoology, University of Oxford
The development of a suite of technologies, from intelligent traps to spatial monitoring devices, is enabling collection of high quality data from large numbers of small mammals whilst reducing animal suffering. This seminar will introduce these technologies and the motivation for deploying them in Wytham Woods. It will present the new horizons in field ecology that they afford, for instance the dynamics of the gut microbiota in free-living animals, along with the novel and exciting insights that they are generating and the new ecological and evolutionary questions that are arising from their use.
