SEMINARS AND TALKS
We run a weekly Internal Seminar Series to provide a platform for our research staff and students to present their work to their peers. The Department also hosts a number of prominent speakers across our External Seminar Series - look at for updates in the Departmental Newsletter to see what's coming up. In addition, University-wide seminars, events and talks can be found through browsing Oxford Talks or by signing up to the MSD Digest
Newsletter
The Department has a fortnightly Newsletter which is sent to all staff and students. The Newsletter is your 'go-to' source for all Departmental news and updates. Your Oncology email will be automatically added to the distribution list. If you don’t receive one within your first 2 weeks, email benjamin.dean@oncology.ox.ac.uk
BLOG & TWITTER
We have our own blog. It's a great platform for you to have your say, and a great way to develop your written communication skills. If you would like to get involved once you’ve settled in, contact benjamin.dean@oncology.ox.ac.uk
