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.
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.
