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
Reconstructing the immune system using single cell RNA sequencing
Muzlifah has used functional genomics, comparative biology and more recently single cell RNA sequencing to study human mononuclear phagocytes. In this seminar, she will discuss the power and utility of single cell RNA sequencing to understand the functional organisation of the human immune system.
