OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.

Why is studying sex differences in brain and behaviour important for mental health? I hope to answer this question by guiding you through typical sex differences in brain development, possible mechanisms behind the development of sex differences in the brain and how these findings may impact the way we approach studying mental health conditions. The latter part of the talk will focus on how this links in with autism spectrum research.
Dr Amber Ruigrok is a Binks Autism Neuroscience Research Fellow from the Autism Research Centre, Cambridge
