On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Although sex differences in prevalence across a range of neurodegenerative conditions (e.g. Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) are well known, there are associated differences in the profile of risks, clinical presentations, and responses to treatment in men and women that are largely overlooked. In this talk I will describe and discuss a number of ways in which improving our understanding of the interaction between sex, gender and disease processes might help with developing ‘personalised’ treatments to improve outcomes and quality of life for both those suffering from, and those caring for loved ones with ill health in later life.
