OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Dr. Davalos investigates how microglia become activated when the brain vasculature is compromised, and how microglial responses affect neuronal function in physiological or pathological conditions. He performed the first in vivo imaging study of microglia and has developed novel methods for intravital microscopy of the brain and spinal cord in living mice. His research combines cutting-edge imaging techniques with molecular, cellular and genetic approaches to study the interactions between blood vessels, neurons, and glia, and understand how their relationships change between health and disease.
