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.
Drug discovery remains a very long and costly process with reducing attrition a major objective. We have shown previously that using human genetics evidence may increase the chance of success in the clinic for drug targets. In addition, genomics technologies that can measure omics layers or perturb the genome at scale can also be used to identify and validate new drug targets and investigate biology at a systems level. In this talk, using examples, I will describe how genetics and genomics data with computational biology analyses are currently being used in drug discovery and the importance of biological context.
