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
Olfaction has been revealed as an attractive system in the brain by recent molecular biological and physiological studies using functional recording, which indicated elaborate mechanisms for processing olfactory information in the main olfactory bulb. Modern advanced technologies have enabled us to label bulbar neurons selectively, and even individually. Thus I can show how the rodent olfactory bulb is regulated centrifugally by serotonergic, cholinergic and noradrenergic projections, as well as intrinsically by estradiol with an enormous amount of findings collected from directly correlated laser scanning microscopy, digital wide-field volume electron microscopy, ultra-high voltage electron microscopy, and electron tomography. Current uncertainties and issues that need to be clarified in the future are also discussed.
