On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
SICI (short-interval intracortical inhibition) is thought to be caused by low intensity stimulation of non-directionally sensitive GABAergic interneurons in motor cortex. I will show some recent experiments that indicate this is not true. In fact, different directions of SICI activate independent sets of inhibitory connections that interact differently with other forms of cortical inhibition (SAI, CBI). And if Covid had not intervened I might even have been able to say whether they are differentially recruited by different behaviours!
