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.
Iterative Strategies to Refine and Optimize DBS for Depression
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.
