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

This seminar will explore funding opportunities such as non-stipendiary fellowships, knowledge exchange funds and seed funds. It will take a look at ways in which success in applying for these relatively small pots of funding can successfully position you for the some of the bigger funding opportunities that come later.
Delivered by Dr Zoë Lee, Research Funding Manager in the university’s Research Services team, the session will also offer tips on what makes a successful funding bid. This is a chance to ask questions and generate discussion on this sometimes-challenging aspect of being an academic.
Insight into Academia is a series of informal seminars and ‘conversations’, exploring opportunities for an academic career within and beyond the UK, important decisions along the way and what it takes to thrive as an academic.
