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
Researchers from the Oxford Centre for Microbiome Studies are inviting families to join a Poo Trivia Quiz for Biology Week 2025. The live online event is a free, family-friendly quiz created by poo scientists for anyone poo-curious. They aim to help everyone to learn more about what happens in our guts and our toilets.
Families/teams can join online from their home devices to participate in the 40-minute interactive quiz. Quiz rounds will include poo science, poo health, poo in the news and whose poo is that?
The Royal Society of Biology celebrates Biology Week annually to highlight and champion the biosciences and everyone working in them.
The Oxford Centre for Microbiome Studies is based in the Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, a biomedical research centre of the University of Oxford.
The Oxford Centre for Microbiome Studies is involved in many national projects studying how the gut microbiome is involved in health and disease. Recent projects range from inflammatory bowel disease and rheumatoid arthritis to how a mother’s diet affects the gut microbiome of her babies.
