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
In the past decades we have seen the rise and fall of a number of promising therapies for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Despite huge efforts in the field only a few have made it through approval by regulatory agencies. Two main reasons of failure are :1) a limited efficacy of the compounds in development and 2) issues in trial design (the selection of outcome measures and endpoints, selection of patient population). In this seminar we will discuss the issues in clinical development in DMD and explore how we could potentially improve clinical trial design.
