On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Integral membrane proteins that are embedded in the cellular plasma membrane make up the vast majority of all approved drug targets. However, the contributions of the membrane lipids to the function and behavior of these membrane-embedded proteins have for years been neglected. Often the membrane itself is seen as just a ‘scaffold’ to hold the protein in place. Using a range of integrated computational and experimental methods (several developed specifically for this project), we explore the interactions between membrane proteins and their surrounding lipid environments to reveal just how intricate, detailed, and balanced the relationship is.
