Meet the Researcher

A PhD student presents to a group of people in a room. Her slide reads "evaluation questionnaire". There is a standing pull-up banner with OPEN ARMS and NDORMS logos and small posters are on boards further to the right.

Researchers at NDORMS, a medical research department at the University of Oxford, aim to understand and develop new treatments for joint, muscle and inflammatory conditions like arthritis and psoriasis. Members of the public are invited to attend free, monthly Meet the Researcher events to hear about what we do. You can attend online via Zoom.

We share the topic of each upcoming event below and also in the OPEN ARMS mailing list – please sign up to stay in the loop.

What is involved

Each month, NDORMS researchers invite members of the public to hear about what we are doing to help patients with inflammatory and joint conditions. These talks are free, and take place online.  Usually, there are two or three short talks by researchers with plenty of time for discussion and for you to ask questions.

Events take place from 1pm-2pm, every fourth Monday of the month except August and December.  We also hold an Open Day where you can visit the department each year in May.
