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
Healthcare systems face a cost crisis as they try to provide an increasingly wide range of transformative but expensive treatments to older, sicker populations. Better prevention that complements new treatments is essential. I will present metabolomics and genetics data from half a million blood samples from three national biobanks, and show that metabolomic risk scores predict future risk of disease better than genetics for most diseases that cause highest morbidity in Europe. I will show targeted analyses of predicting inflammatory bowel disease risk to complement these cross-disease analyses. Finally, I will describe a pathway to real-world implementation of ‘omic-enabled prevention.
