OxTalks is Changing
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.
'Macrophage Membrane Domains that Coordinate Toll-like Receptor Signaling'
Special Visiting Scientist seminar
Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling controls inflammation in macrophages by tailoring programs of inflammatory cytokines. TLR-induced inflammation is constrained by Rab GTPases and PI3Ks that modulate Akt and mTOR signaling, while proinflammatory cytokine production is promoted by transmembrane adaptor complexes and SFKs. These molecules operate in the context of high turnover, highly dynamic membranes of dorsal ruffles and macropinosomes at the macrophage surface, viewed in live cells by lattice light sheet imaging and other imaging modalities. Coordinated assembly of membrane domains and signaling pathways provides exquisite orchestration of inflammation and innate immune responses.
