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.
Part of the Oxford Forum of Open Scholarship 2025.
Despite nearly every academic needing to engage with peer review in some capacity, either through review of their own or others work, many are thrust into this system with little training or guidance on what is expected from the process. This session will aim to provide attendees with an introduction to peer review: why it exists, how it works in practice, a critical look at what it does (and does not) accomplish, and some advice on conducting and responding to reviews as part of your academic routine. Worked examples and case studies will lean toward the biomedical sciences but the session will aim to provide information relevant to the peer review process across disciplines.
