Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
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.
After completing her PhD in biochemistry in 2006, Dr Jacqueline Burré joined the laboratory of Dr. Thomas C. Südhof at University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, and later at Stanford University, California. In 2014, Dr. Burré joined the Brain and Mind Research Institute at Weill Cornell Medicine in New York.
The Burré lab aims to understand molecular mechanisms underlying neurological diseases at the synapse. They are currently concentrating on synucleins in Parkinson’s disease, on Munc18-1/STXBP1 in childhood encephalopathies, and on SNAP-25 in epilepsy. They employ a variety of technologies, including biochemistry, cell biology, and imaging, combined with in vitro studies of purified proteins, C. elegans and mouse models of neuropathology.
