Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Entrapment neuropathies are caused by compression or irritation of nerves as they travel through narrow anatomical spaces. Common conditions include carpal tunnel syndrome and sciatica. Entrapment neuropathies represent the most common nerve injury and cause for nerve-related (neuropathic) pain. For science, entrapment neuropathy is also a unique model system as we can have access to injured human nerves in the context of neuropathic pain. In this talk, I will highlight how studying people with entrapment neuropathies in detail has helped us advance our understanding of mechanisms involved in nerve injury and neuropathic pain.
