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
Refreshments from 6:15 pm for a 6:30 pm start
Professor Zameel Cader, Consultant Neurologist and Director of the Oxford Headache Centre and Director of Stembancc, University of Oxford will talk about how the world continues to face major challenges in providing effective therapies for disabling and degenerative neurological disorders. Diseases such as Alzheimer’s have no effective treatments whilst other prevalent and disabling conditions such as chronic migraine have inadequate treatments. Stem cell technology may offer hope for new ways of finding better drugs or even regenerating lost brain cells. In this talk, the promise of stem cells will be examined against the real challenges ahead to deliver this promise.
