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.
Dr Mostowy’s laboratory is currently involved in studying autophagy and the cytoskeleton to understand how cells control infection. The research aims are (i) to identify and characterize host and pathogen determinants underlying the intracellular fate of cytosolic bacteria, and (ii) to investigate the role of discovered molecules and mechanisms in vivo using zebrafish models of bacterial infection. The study of intracellular host defence may suggest the development of new therapeutic strategies aimed at bacterial infection, and possibly other disease states that also implicate cytosolic host responses.
