On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
It is almost 15 years since the first proof-of-principle report of DBS for treatment resistant depression. Progress continues, with implementation of refined techniques for surgical targeting and emerging clues as to which patients are most likely to benefit. Additional perspectives on trajectory, time-course, and sustainability of DBS effects have been advanced by device innovations that address mechanisms at the neural level. Current studies are further poised to explore strategies to maximize rehabilitative gains of patients once the DBS itself is optimized. Together, these studies provide a unique opportunity to form a more comprehensive and nuanced understanding of illness and recovery.
