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.
G protein coupled receptors (GPCR) have proven a treasure trove for modern pharmacological intervention of numerous human ailments. However, in stark contrast to classically targeted GPCRs, adhesion GPCRs habe been largely neglected by biologists, pharmacologists and clinician scientists for decades. Only recently their physiological and signaling properties are being unravelled and show exciting features including their roles in tissue architecture, signaling through tethered agonism and their unusual activation through mechanical cues. This seminar will discuss the recent developments on adhesion GPCR signaling and introduce the receptor family as a topical area in neuroscience and cancer research.
