OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Power-posing politicians, human pheromones, and other psychological myths
Newspapers often feature studies that sound too good to be true: it turns out they’re myths. Tristram has been looking into one of them – human pheromones. Some myths may be harmless but the phenomenon affects most kinds of research including medicine. The good news is that there’s a new movement tackling misleading unreliable research and trying to give us results we can trust.
Open to all. The talk is designed for researchers from all disciplines and the general public.
