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
Helena has an OPEN Visiting Fellowship with Alice Norton’s Policy and Practice Research Group at PSI. In this session targeted at early / mid career researchers, she will give an overview of the UK Civil Service and how science policy works, and will draw on the UK Biological Security Strategy as a case study for how departments and policy areas work together on a single issue. They’ll also be some practical advice at the session on how to approach a transition into science policy and reflections on Helena’s OPEN Visiting Fellowship.
