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
Levelling Up: Developing Upstream Health Informatics Interventions to Reduce Health and Healthcare Disparities
The Teams link will be sent to those who register. Registrations close at 10am (UK time) on Wednesday 20 April. The Teams link will be provided for those who register.
Chaired by Professor Trish Greenhalgh
Health disparities are differences in disease incidence, prevalence, morbidity, mortality, or survival in one group compared to the general population. Health disparities are a product of macro-level social, political and economic mechanisms and intermediary social determinants of health such as living and working conditions and social networks.
This presentation presents an approach to developing “upstream” informatics interventions that focus on the social, political, economic and physical contexts in which health is (re-)produced. The presentation outlines key insights drawn from three community-based research projects in the United States focused on developing and evaluating upstream informatics interventions.
This free guest lecture is from the Translation Health Sciences programme.
