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
Let's Talk About: Stigma
How do we talk about disease—and the stigma that often comes with it?
Join us at the History of Science Museum for an open conversation exploring how illness and stigma shape our experiences, perceptions, and histories. You’ll hear from five thought-provoking speakers who will guide small breakout discussions, each inspired by intriguing objects, some of which are from our collections.
Then we’ll come together as a group as our speakers share their reflections. You’ll have an opportunity to contribute to the conversation and ask questions. Will hearing each other’s stories shift how we think?
Let’s talk about stigma.
