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.
Studies on the genetics of female reproductive phenotypes has, with a few exceptions, somewhat lagged behind compared to other complex phenotypes, such as type 2 diabetes. Recent years have seen great progress for diseases such as polycystic ovary syndrome and endometriosis, where international consortiums have been formed to accelerate research. At the same time there are still some reproductive health-related diseases and phenotypes for which the genetic background remains an uncharted territory. This talk will give a brief overview on recent findings from studies into the genetics of miscarriage, pelvic prolapse, and cervical phenotypes.
