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
What? TED-style talks from current DPhil and Postdoctoral researchers, based on the theme of ‘Sandscapes’
When? Wednesday 2nd Dec (8th week), 4:30 pm
Where? EW Gilbert Room, SoGE
Why? An ideal opportunity for undergraduate and Masters students to get a flavour for the sort of research that postgraduates are undertaking in the department. There will also be a drinks trolley!
