Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Recent evidence from depth recordings in patients suggests that beta synchrony across neural populations occurs in bursts, and specific characteristics of these bursts determine whether they promote or impede motor processing. This has a direct bearing on how best to deliver deep brain stimulation. Hitherto this has been delivered continuously, but the indiscriminate suppression of both good and bad beta activity has restricted the therapeutic window. This can be rectified by more selective stimulation.
