OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Using Social Media for Public Engagement in academia
Tom will share some of his top tips on how to use social media for public engagement as an academic – including what he has learned through his own experience over the past 5 years with @tomrocksmaths.
Dr Tom Crawford teaches Maths at the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge, as well as running the award-winning ‘Tom Rocks Maths’ outreach programme. With over 25 million views on YouTube, it’s likely you’ve seen him taking a high school maths exam with no preparation, or talking all things fluid dynamics on Numberphile.
