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.
A probiotic turn is underway in various domains of health and environmental management. Probiotic approaches introduce organisms into ecological systems and manage their dynamics to restore desired functions and services. They aim to address the problems caused by the overreach of modern, antibiotic approaches that have simplified and degraded ecological systems and compromised their resilience and sustainability. This talk provides an overview of this shift, and illustrates its implications for agriculture and food. It focuses on the example of regenerative agriculture and the roles it affords livestock, plants and microbes in tackling environmental problems.
