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
Inflammasomes are multimolecular protein complexes that catalyse key inflammatory reactions in response to pathogens and to tissue injury. Understanding the regulation of inflamamsomes has led to the development of new anti-inflammatory drugs that may be effective in a number of diseases. Here Prof Brough describes recent work on the formation and degradation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, and also covers some recent work on the AIM2 inflammasome.
