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
This talk will focus on the critical role played by claudin-5 at the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Claudin-5 is the most enriched tight junction component at the BBB and its dysregulation has been implicated in a range of neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. Here, the focus will be on understanding how and why claudin-5 becomes disrupted at the BBB. The talk will bring in both pre-clinical and clinical research based approaches to understanding regulation of the BBB in health and disease.
