OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Dr. Hai Qi received a Bachelor of Medicine from the Beijing Medical University in 1996 and a Ph.D. in Pathology from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston in 2003. After postdoctoral training at NIH with Dr. Ronald Germain, in 2009 he joined the faculty of Tsinghua University, where he is currently a Professor in Immunology. His group studies follicular helper T (Tfh) cells and germinal center biology with a particular emphasis on cell-cell interactions, cell migration, and functional specialization. In this talk, Dr. Qi will present new findings on how territoriality and function of follicular helper T cells are regulated in the germinal center niche and how T cells impinge on the development of memory B cells.
