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 Light Microscopy Imaging Facilities invite you to take part in our Essentials of Light Microscopy Course held in the lecture theatre of the Richard Doll building (Churchill campus, Headington) on the 11th of July 2025 from 09:45 – 17:00. This course brings together imaging experts and facility managers from all across Oxford and is an excellent way for any new starter to get to know the Light microscopy community in Oxford.
The course is suitable for all students, technicians, postdocs and other staff who require microscopy as part of their project/work and does not require any previous microscopy experience. However, more experienced microscopists and PI’s may still find this useful, to learn more on experimental design, sample preparation, data storage and image analysis.
The short course is meant to provide a basic theoretical background for the everyday microscopy demands in Oxford’s biomedical research institutes and connect you with imaging facilities near you.
