OxTalks is Changing
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
Patching up the crypt: Innate immune cells orchestrate intestinal regeneration
Tom Cupedo is an associate professor at the department of Hematology at the Erasmus University Medical Center in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. He did his training as a PhD student with Reina Mebius, investigating ILC3 in mouse lymph node development and as a postdoctoral fellow with Hergen Spits, leading to the identification of human fetal ILC3. In recent years his research has been focused on the biology of group 3 Innate lymphoid Cells (ILC3), especially in the context of intestinal regeneration. Recent findings include the characterization of a stromal niche for ILC3 in human and mouse lymph nodes, and the discovery of an important role for ILC3 as regulators of epithelial stem cell regeneration and tissue repair following intestinal damage.
