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
Justin Stebbing, Editor-in-Chief of Oncogene, one of the world’s leading cancer journals, is Visiting Professor of Oncology at Imperial College London, Professor of Biomedical Sciences, ARU, Cambridge, and an alumnus of Trinity. Specialising in new therapies for cancer, Professor Stebbing has published over 650 peer-reviewed papers as well as regularly presenting new data on optimal cancer therapies. In this talk he will describe how during the pandemic, a computer programme led to studies at breakneck speed in early 2020 which produced a treatment that was US Government Food & Drug Administration approved 9 months later.
