OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Biological imaging and ultrafast spectroscopy facilities in the Research Complex at Harwell, and their role in the study of structure/function relationships of EGF receptor complexes
The Research Complex at Harwell is a multidisciplinary laboratory that provides facilities for researchers to undertake new and cutting edge scientific research in both life and physical sciences and the interface between them. The UK’s Central Laser Facility operates two facilities in the Research Complex: ULTRA, offering multiple ultrafast pump-probe vibrational spectroscopy techniques, and Octopus, a cluster of advanced optical imaging instrumentation including sub-diffraction limit imaging, single molecule techniques, optical tweezers and FLIM/FRET microscopy. The facilities are supported by a multidisciplinary team of scientists, and are available free at the point of access to the academic community, via an open peer-review process. Dave will give an overview of the ULTRA and Octopus facilities, and Marisa will present data showing the application of some of the techniques available in Octopus to her research into the Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Family, a group of cell-surface receptor tyrosine kinases that play a fundamental role in regulation of cellular metabolism, growth and differentiation.
