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.
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.
