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

He played a critical role in identifying and tracking SARS-CoV-2 variants during the COVID-19 pandemic through CERI and the KwaZulu-Natal Research Innovation and Sequencing Platform.
