SUMMARY:HDRUK Oxford Policy Masterclass - Overview of the machinery of policymaking\, examples from digital technology and social care\, key considerations of when engaging with policymakers
DESCRIPTION:Overview: With science\, health and politics increasingly in the popular press and media the interface between scientific evidence and its use in informing health policy is never more under the public scrutiny. Health data research can play an important role in informing health policy -current and future. Yet the two sectors of academia and policy can act somewhat disparately\, resulting in research and policy making being siloed. \nAim: In the inaugural masterclass series\, we aim to deliver a varied session that combines demystifying the wheels of policymaking\, exploring successful examples of health research informing policy and lively debate on how and when scientific evidence could inform future policy development through a topical example. \nWelcome from Professor Sir Aziz Sheikh \nTommy Wise\, Policy Lead for Care Technology\, Department of Health and Social Care \nPanel discussion: Research and Policy Interface: The Evidence Quandary \nProfessor Cathie Sudlow and Professor Dame Jenny Harries \nHands on policy masterclass (only for DPhils and ESRs) \nInstructors: Jose Rojas Alvarado (OPEN Policy Network) and Tommy Wise \nRichard Doll Building Lecture Theatre \nIn person only \nRegister \nLunch and refreshments \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Are they who they say they are? Exploring impostor / fraudulent participants in qualitative research and PPIE
DESCRIPTION:Join the NIHR Research Support Service (RSS) Hub at King’s College London for a group training session exploring the challenges posed by imposter or fraudulent participants—individuals who misrepresent their lived experience or identity in the context of qualitative research or Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement. \nThis session will open up honest discussion and provide practical tools to help researchers and PPIE facilitators reflect on and respond to this growing issue. \nIn this session\, we will: \n•       Examine what we mean by “imposter” or “fraudulent” participation\n•       Discuss real-world case studies where concerns emerged\n•       Explore ethical tensions and dilemmas in inclusive research in the context of suspected imposter / fraudulent participants\n•       Explain strategies to help recognise\, manage\, and reduce risks without undermining trust or participation. \nWho should attend? \nQualitative researchers\, public involvement professionals\, PPIE contributors\, and anyone working in co-produced\, community-based\, or participatory research. \nPlease register and submit your questions in advance using this link.

SUMMARY:The Past is Not Past: Incorporating Historical Context into Psychological Therapy with People from Minoritised Ethnicities
DESCRIPTION:Historical context is a key factor in psychological therapy with people from minoritised ethnicities. The ongoing effects of historical experiences of discrimination and self-empowerment continue to shape the lived experiences of people from minority ethnic communities and influence their interactions with psychological therapy and healthcare systems in general today. However\, historical context remains underexplored in the academic mental health literature. \nThis webinar will explore why and how historical context should be incorporated into psychological therapy with people from minoritised ethnicities. It will have a focus on cognitive behavioural therapy and will\, in addition to a theoretical conceptualisation\, suggest practical steps attendees can take to include historical context in their work. The histories of minority ethnic communities are also relevant in healthcare services in general\, so there will be some discussion of how these historical legacies might be addressed across the healthcare system. \nMore information and registration.

SUMMARY:Artificial intelligence for electronic health records
DESCRIPTION:Open to members of the University of Oxford only. \nThis talk by Dr. Shishir Rao explores how artificial intelligence (AI) on routinely collected electronic health records (EHR) data can transform healthcare research. The talk will focus on development and application of Transformer-based models for handling rich\, multitype EHR\, leveraging AI for prediction for early intervention\, accelerating disease understanding\, and conducting well-adjusted causal inference on large-scale EHR. Furthermore\, the presentation will address critical challenges in the space of AI and healthcare: determining appropriate AI applications\, ensuring trustworthiness\, mitigating algorithmic bias\, and validating clinical utility. \nMore information.

SUMMARY:Positive Experience Shifts Fear Memories Away from Basolateral Amygdala
DESCRIPTION:Open to members of the University of Oxford only. \nThe basolateral amygdala (BLA) is at the centre of all biological models that detail how we form fear memories across species. However\, we have recently shown that GABAergic neurons in the lateral hypothalamus (LH GABA) become critical for formation of fear memories if subjects have recently had a positive experience. In this talk\, I will present data on how the recruitment of LH GABA neurons to encode fear memories impacts the role of the BLA in encoding fear memories. Using both optogenetic and lesion manipulations of BLA activity\, we first replicated findings that BLA activity is required for formation of fear memories in experimentally-naïve rats. However\, we found that if rats have recently had a distinct\, positively-valenced experience\, the BLA was no longer necessary for the formation of the fear memory. This shows that recruitment of LH GABA neurons to encode fear memories shifts the encoding of fear memories away from the BLA. As one of the most replicable findings in the behavioural neuroscience literature is that BLA inactivation or damage produces deficits in the formation of fear memories\, these data require a reconsideration of biological models of fear memories. More generally\, this work shows that brain regions can be recruited to encode information outside their traditional specialization and suggest a more fluid approach to conceptualizing memory formation\, which considers diversity of experience. \nMore information and registration.

SUMMARY:Regulation of RyR2 in the heart and brain
DESCRIPTION:Open to University of Oxford staff. \nType-2 ryanodine receptor (RyR2) mediated calcium release controls the contraction of cardiac myocytes and the excitability of neurons. Consequently\, inappropriate activation of RyR2 leads to disease\, such as arrhythmias and Alzheimer’s disease. Prof Jones will describe his published and unpublished research examining the pathophysiological regulation of RyR2 in the heart and brain. This spans from single protein super-resolution microscopy\, through real time calcium imaging\, to in vivo analysis in animal models\, and characterisation in human tissue. He will also present data on how targeting RyR2 might offer new treatments for arrhythmias and Alzheimer’s disease.\nMore information and registration.
