OxTalks is Changing
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
GUEST: Prof Fiona Watts FRS FMedSci, Director, Centre for Stem Cells & Regenerative Medicine. Guy's Hospital King's College London :- ‘Signals that control exit from the stem cell compartment in human epidermis’
GUEST SPEAKER
Stem cell behaviour is controlled by intrinsic mechanisms and by external signals from the local microenvironment or niche. Using cultures of human epidermal stem cells, my lab is investigating the interplay between specific intrinsic and extrinsic signals in regulating stem cell fate. We have been able to define soluble factors, cell surface ligands and extracellular matrix components that control exit from the stem cell compartment.
