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.
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.
