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
This conference will examine the history of measurement, starting from the ancient world and following the evolution of measuring methodologies and the development of measuring instruments over the eras up to the present day. It will discuss the establishment of the metric system and consider examples of famous experiments across the centuries. The conference will conclude with a philosophical perspective on measurement.
All details and weblinks to register for the conference to attend in person or online are given on the webpage here:
