OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
LGBTQ+ allyship in science: Why we need an inclusive workplace and what all of us can do to achieve it.

Dr Clara Barker is a Daphne Jackson Trust research fellow and manages the Centre for Applied Superconductivity at Oxford’s Department of Materials. She is also an award-winning LGBTQ+ activist, with contributions on TEDx, BBC and Sky News. In 2017, Dr Barker was awarded the Prime Minister’s Points of Light Award for her volunteer work raising awareness of LGBTQ+ issues. In 2023, she was appointed Inclusion and Diversity Representative by the Institute of Physics. In this talk, Dr Barker will share her personal path to science, and highlight the importance of having an inclusive workplace. We will learn about the difficulties that the LGBTQ+ community face in STEM, and what everyone can do to promote allyship.
