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
Public Lecture: Fantastically beastly headaches and how to cure them
Reception and Refreshments from 6:15pm for a 6:30pm start
Professor Zameel Cader, Director of the Oxford Headache Centre and Director of Oxford StemBANCC, which stores stem cells for drug testing, will talk about headaches.
Headaches are anything but fantastic for millions of sufferers. Their impact on people’s lives is often not understood and all too easily dismissed by others. But why do some people get crippling headaches and what is currently thought to cause them? There are many exciting discoveries that are finally paving the way for new treatments that may be truly fantastic.
This talk is hosted by the NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre and the NIHR Clinical Research Network Thames Valley and South Midlands, which are funded by the Department of Health to support research in the NHS.
