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.
Monocytes are innate immune cells with diverse functions in host defense against infection and tumors, as well as tissue homeostasis, repair and regeneration. They perform surveillance roles throughout the body and can be rapidly recruited to infected or injured tissues. Recent studies have revealed that monocytes are more heterogeneous than previously appreciated and we have shown that this is in part a reflection of their origins. I will present evidence that functionally distinct monocyte subsets arise via independent pathways in the bone marrow, and discuss how infection, inflammation, cancer and aging may impact monocyte production and functional programming.
