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.
People are complex. Many healthcare interventions are complex. Health systems are complex. To address grand challenges and wicked problems, we must embrace and manage this complexity.
This workshop, convened by Trish Greenhalgh and colleagues and sponsored by Green Templeton College, will bring together scholars from a wide range of disciplines within and beyond the healthcare field to consider different approaches to the study of complexity. We aim to produce a collection of papers for submission to an academic journal.
Guest speakers will include Penny Hawe (University of Sydney) and Mark Petticrew (London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine). There will also be 20-minute oral presentations and posters.
The workshop, and dinner on the 13th, is free. Doctoral students may claim travel and accommodation. To be considered for the workshop, submit a 300-word abstract to complexity@gtc.ox.ac.uk by 31st December. We are seeking a mix of disciplinary perspectives and both theoretical and empirical studies. Successful applicants will be notfied by mid-January 2017.
We anticipate high interest in this workshop
