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. 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.
