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.
Adult stem cell activity for maintaining a healthy gut
This will be a hybrid event, contact Stephanie Jones for Teams link
Ageing is a major risk factor for many diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders and cancers. My research focuses on understanding how intestinal stem cells function in rodents with varying lifespans. Using comparative analyses between short-lived mice and long-lived naked mole rats, we have recently shown that adult stem cell activity varies significantly between these species. Mimicking the biology of naked mole rats has the potential to reverse age-related decline in tissue function in humans.
