OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Registration has now opened for our one-day public symposium investigating public participation in medicine and healthcare from the nineteenth century to the present.
The symposium, held at the Royal College of Surgeons of England (RCS), will bring together historical and contemporary perspectives to look at the relationship between the medical profession and the public. It will explore challenges to professional boundaries throughout the period, how the doctor-patient relationship has changed and in what ways the public can contribute to matters of medicine, health and disease. See below for a full programme.
This public event will be followed by a drinks reception at the College’s Hunterian Museum.
It will be of interest to medical and healthcare practitioners, the public, historians and medical humanities scholars. The event is open to all.
Accredited by the Royal College of Surgeons of England for up to 6.0 CPD points
This event has been generously supported by the Arts and Humanities Research Council.
