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
The Data Access Request Service (DARS) team responsible for the University of Oxford, led by Jennifer Donald, will be holding a one hour seminar for key researchers using NHS Digital data next Wednesday, 6 December, at 2.00pm in BDI Seminar Room 0. The seminar will include some top tips for applications, some general news from DARS and Q & A. The team are keen to receive feedback to help improve the service. As you may be aware there has been a slight change to the structure of the NHS Data Access Request Service (DARS) and they are now working to a key accounts model. This means that small teams will now have sole responsibility for individual organisations and all their DARS applications and enquiries.
It would help if you registered for the seminar, at training@ndph.ox.ac.uk (at the very least, to ensure we have enough space) but you are also welcome just to come along on the day.
