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
Abstract:
Hyperpoalrised MRI is a new, non-invasive, technique to monitor dynamic metabolism of 13C labelled tracers – allowing us to spatially map the activity of key metabolic pathways (for example mitochondrial metabolism or lactate formation) throughout the body.
Currently, there are less than 10 sites world-wide that can do clinical studies with this technology, and Oxford is equipped with both preclinical and clinical equipment to take a truly translation approach.
James is currently leading the pre-clinical and clinical brain studies at Oxford, and will give an overview of the exciting opportunities available for researchers to collaborate across the University.
