OxTalks is Changing
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.
Introduction to Lookdown Processes
This talk is a quick introduction to Lookdown Processes and how they can be used (in particular with reference to population models). Lookdown models can be a very useful tool when analysing population models and they provide an interesting and different way of viewing biological problems. I will be basing this talk mainly on the paper Kurtz Rodriguez 2011 which provides a good introduction to the Lookdown peocesses and some motivating examples. Then, if time permits, I will discuss the main difficulties involved when using these processes and how these Lookdown processes can be used when considering a changing environment and the benefits of such a technique.
