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
Regulation of claudin-5 at the blood brain barrier in health and disease
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.
