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
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!
