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 this talk we will present cutting-edge technologies to decipher the infection processes at the single-cell RNA-seq. While transcriptomics has unveil cell-to-cell heterogeneity with unprecedented resolution, understading cellular transitions remain a challenge. Here we will introduce scSLAM-seq, a technology that combines RNA metabolic labelling, nucleotide conversion and scRNA-seq to reveal the onset of viral infections. In a second part of the talk we will introduce a novel technology to track the transcriptome of individual bacteria and potentially in the future the transcriptome of complex microbial communities. Finally we also summarize our latest efforts to respond to the current COVID-19 crisis.
