OxTalks is Changing
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
Pint of Science: Discovering dementia: Carbon monoxide – the dose makes the poison
The symptoms and effects of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s arise from the damage of cells known as neurons that facilitate normal brain function. We will explore how molecules like carbon monoxide, which are generated in the body, can be either toxic or protective to these cells.
