Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
We’re all in a ‘publish or perish’ culture, and on top of that are being encouraged to share our data, code, and make our papers Open Access. It’s a difficult world to navigate as a researcher, and it doesn’t create a good research culture or make for a robust and efficient research record. In this seminar, Alex Freeman will introduce Octopus.ac – a publishing platfom funded by UKRI – which is free, Open, and allows you to share all kinds of work, alongside papers or independent from them.
