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 widespread adoption of selective serotonin inhibitors (SSRIs) as first line pharmacological treatments in the management of clinical depression, transformed the landscape of drug therapy for this condition. SSRIs are safer and better tolerated than the tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) which they replaced. However, they have limitations which may have placed a ceiling on expectations of first-line pharmacological treatment. Notable problems with SSRIs include induction of anxiety on treatment initiation, delayed onset of significant therapeutic effect, sexual dysfunction, sleep disturbance and overall modest efficacy. This talk will describe the development of SSRIs from TCAs and the pharmacological properties that might account for the superior efficacy of TCAs in some people with depression.
