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
The Oxford University Society for Synthetic Biology (SynBio.Oxford) is pleased to be hosting talks by Oxford University’s iGEM and BIOMOD teams. iGEM and BIOMOD are highly prestigious undergraduate synthetic biology competitions, specializing in genetic engineering and bionanotechnology respectively. Teams from around the world compete to design and build new tools, genetic circuits, DNA structures and lots more. Both teams have spent their summers working on their projects and this will be the first public unveiling of their work. Many team projects are at the leading edge in their respective fields, and are often the starting point for much larger scientific or industrial applications. The Oxford BIOMOD team in particular is breaking new ground as the first ever UK team to participate at the competition.
