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.
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.
