OxTalks is Changing
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
NDPH Seminar: Translating genomics into population-based cancer screening strategies – opportunities and challenges
Personalised or risk-stratified screening offers opportunities to improve the efficiency of cancer screening programmes and reduce their adverse consequences. Polygenic risk score alone or combined with non-genetic risk factors could be used for risk-stratification for risk-tailored screening. Developing and implementing such risk-stratified programmes would require coordination of multi-disciplinary efforts.
