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
There is currently no microscopy technique that qualifies as in vivo and non-invasive… or is there? It had been a long winding road, but diffusion MRI combined with biophysical modelling may just fill that role. In this talk, we will (i) go through the latest developments and validation steps of relevant models for quantifying white and gray matter microstructure, (ii) cover their recent applications to a range of diseases, highlighting the added value of diffusion-derived microstructure metrics to disentangle pathological events and trajectories, and (iii) take a fresh look at the potential of diffusion functional MRI to detect brain activity, as an alternative to conventional contrasts that rely on neurovascular coupling.
