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
The talk will focus on new approaches to quantify and control signaling in living cells. We are probing Rho family GTPase networks in phagocytosis and metastasis by inhibiting or activating key proteins with chemo/optogenetics as we visualize downstream signals. A novel approach to study the conformational changes of individual molecules in live cells will be covered, as will computational approaches to determine causal connections between protein activation events.
