OxTalks is Changing
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
Pandemic Preparedness, Outbreaks, and Conflict
This workshop brings together humanities scholars and medical researchers to discuss current research on disease outbreaks and pandemic preparedness in the context of conflict settings. This in part draws on the PSI’s Nipah programme’s research projects – the BASE study and the STIGMA study – which, because they are based in Bangladesh, have also discussed how to approach preparedness activities and outbreak responses in countries with degrees of unstable political circumstances. The workshop also draws on longstanding research into the relationship between conflicts, disease outbreaks, and medical responses, including Oxford’s Centre for the History of Science, Medicine, and Technology’s projects on Malaria in Asia and Medicine and Conflict.
