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.
We invite students of all levels (undergraduate, masters, and PhD) across the humanities, life sciences, and digital scholarship to provide feedback on a new website designed to connect scientific archives with historical context.
BLOOM brings together the worlds of science, history, and digital research to explore and expand the use of biological collections across disciplines. Our new website reconstructs the Du Bois Herbarium – a collection of 14,000 plant specimens held in the University – allowing users to explore its contents and connections across time, people, and geography.
Your insights will directly shape the next phase of BLOOM’s design and help us build a tool that truly supports interdisciplinary research. Participants will get an early look at the site and share their thoughts on what works (and what doesn’t!)
Cake and coffee will be served!
