Dr Eileen Parkes is an early phase medical oncologist and associate professor at the University of Oxford. She completed her medical oncology training and PhD at Queens University Belfast before moving to Oxford in 2019. She leads early phase studies of novel IO, including STING agonsits, and is lead for Oxford Experimental Cancer Medicine Centre, focusing on translational research. Her lab team studies the tumour microenvironment of chromosomally unstable cancers, with a particular focus on cGAS-STING signalling, intending to identify novel therapeutic strategies for chromosomally unstable cancers including oesophageal adenocarcinomas.

Airborne transmission was an emblematic point of tension during the COVID pandemic. From its identification to its prevention, it represents both a scientific and a health issue. In this lecture, we will draw on recent reviews and key works in the literature, while situating older sources in the evolution of points of view on the subject, in an attempt to summarise the main historical, biophysical and epidemiological elements relating to airborne transmission, with an emphasis on the contributions of modelling to the study of this subject, now a public health priority.
Noted of, the scientific seminar will be followed by an institutional presentation of the ExposUM Institute.
