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
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), the emergence of bacterial strains that survive antibiotic treatments, is a major global public health concern, causing more than 1.2 million deaths each year and threatening a return to a pre-antibiotic era. Tackling AMR is a multi-faceted problem that involves actions and interventions from the understanding of AMR mechanisms to the development of new antibiotics and diagnostic tests. A panel of AMR specialists will discuss the problem and the action that is needed to slow down this “silent epidemic”.
