The UBVO seminar series programme for Hilary Term 2012 has commenced! Check out the programme here. Don't forget that you can listen to all of the old seminars at the UBVO page in Oxford's iTunesU.
In a new, ongoing series of opinion papers, UBVO Fellows, associates and students are invited to consider how material objects, performance art or events can help us to think about obesity in different ways. You can find the UBVO Opinion Papers here.
