Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
GlaxoSmithKline and Oxford University (GO) launched the PRECISE Alliance (Pre-Cancer Biology and Immunoprevention) in 2024, with the aim of conducting deep exploration of cancer precursors (precancers) to identify their molecular vulnerabilities and developing methods to intercept them. The alliance is led by Professor Sarah Blagden.
As part of this effort, we are launching a dynamic seminar series designed to bring together experts and enthusiasts from across the university and GSK. These sessions will focus on pre-cancer biology, immunology, and cutting-edge topics in cancer prevention. Held every 4–6 weeks during term time, they will offer a fantastic opportunity to exchange ideas and drive progress in this vital field.
