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.
2024 Maurice Lubbock Memorial Lecture
Engineering has transformed biomedicine over the past decades. Current engineering research is pushing the boundaries of the possible, from designing and controlling biological systems from the ground up, to creating new biomaterials and devices. Future developments will transform the way we create new drugs, provide personalised medicine and produce biocompatible materials and devices.
This year’s Lubbock lectures cover some of the most impactful applications of engineering, focusing on synthetic biology, biomaterials and medical devices.
Our 2024 Lubbock Memorial lecturer is James T. Collins, Termeer Professor of Medical Engineering & Science and Professor of Biological Engineering Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Jim’s talk is titled Synthetic Biology: Biology by Design.
The Lubbock supporting lectures cover the breadth of Oxford Engineering Science in this field. Professor Harrison Steel, will talk about Robotics and Control meet Synthetic Biology. Professor Malavika Nair will discuss Biomaterials for SMART Medical Devices and Professor Antonis Papachristodoulou will talk about Feedback in Engineering Biology: Designing Biocontrollers.
