On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The transparency of the cornea its accessibility at the ocular surface enable direct visualisation of immune cells and sensory nerves, in humans, using non-invasive in vivo confocal microscopy. Morphological alterations in corneal immune cells provide insights into the inflammatory status of the cornea, and in some cases, the health of the peripheral nervous and immune systems more generally. Our “Front-Tear” Research Centre is advancing understanding of the dynamics of corneal immune cell subpopulations including their relationship to local and systemic health conditions. We will share recent data relating to corneal immune cell imaging, their potential use as biomarkers of disease, and how targeting the function of these cells represents a potential therapeutic approach to treating ocular surface disease.
