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
Dr. Drake is a pulmonary intensivist and Principal Investigator whose research focuses on the role of inflammation and airway nerves in the development of asthma and chronic cough. His research pairs functional studies of airway physiology with advanced 3-dimensional confocal imaging to uncover new mechanisms driving airway hyperresponsiveness. In his forthcoming talk, Dr. Drake will highlight recent findings on the role of eosinophils in airway sensory nerve remodeling in type 2 asthma and discuss the influence of maternal asthma on fetal lung development and asthma risk.
