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
AgeX: randomising just one extra mammogram in 3 million women
With risk-appropriate regulation, UK electronic health records can facilitate large-scale studies. AgeX, the largest randomised treatment trial ever conducted, can assess realistically small effects of one extra mammographic screening invitation. Three million potentially compliant women have been randomised between invitation and control, and electronic follow-up is monitoring the effects on breast cancer incidence, treatment, and mortality.
