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
Please join us for a joint seminar between Geography and GHSM at King’s College London.
Dr Tolulope Osayomi is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Geography at the University of Ibadan, specializing in spatial epidemiology, spatial demography, global health, and the geography of pandemics. With a PhD in Medical Geography, his research focuses on the intersection of disease, health, and African society. At the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, Dr Osayomi founded and led the COVID-19 Mapping Lab at the University of Ibadan, significantly enhancing the geovisualization and public understanding of the pandemic in Nigeria and Africa.
Currently, Dr Osayomi is an AfOx-TORCH Visiting Fellow at the Centre for the History of Science, Medicine, and Technology, Faculty of History, University of Oxford. His project at Oxford, “Deconstructing the African COVID-19 Paradox: African Voices in Global Health,” seeks to challenge Western-centric notions of Africa and global health narratives by highlighting African resilience and perspectives during the pandemic.
