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
Multi-morbidity presents an increasing challenge in the global ageing population. Prediction of how and when it will develop is necessary to deliver effective healthcare. The Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine and Academic Health Science Network in Oxford have collated the present body of evidence on biomarkers and multi-morbidity currently published.
This workshop lead by Professors Carl Heneghan and Gary Ford will present key findings in the four areas, serum, molecular, physiological and brain function for interrogation by workshop participants.
The aim of this workshop is to build consensus of how we develop universal definitions of multi-morbidity, to better understand our risk factors and inform healthcare and medical policy.
