Useful links for the Matlab-inclined
by Pádraig Kitterick 28 Jun '07

28 Jun '07

Dear all, While struggling to co-exist with Matlab, I have found some excellent documentation online which I thought others might find useful. The first, and probably most useful for those already familiar with using Matlab, is a tips & tricks document which covers various techniques of array and matrix manipulation, which can save you a lot of coding and time searching through the Matlab help library. You can download/view it online here: http://home.online.no/~pjacklam/matlab/doc/mtt/doc/mtt.pdf For those who are just starting Matlab, or need a more extensive reference, the official Matlab 'Getting Started' guide is worth a read: http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/pdf_doc/matlab/getstart.pdf as is the suitabily named 'Matlab for Psychologists': http://www.dartmouth.edu/~antonia/matlab_for_psychologists.pdf Finally, the following page contains lots of useful links to similar documents, including guides to speed up Matlab code through vectorizing: http://www.ee.columbia.edu/~marios/matlab/matlab_tricks.html I hope these are a useful resource for the Matlab users out there.

MRI status
by Gary Green 25 Jun '07

25 Jun '07

Dear colleagues The MRI system RF amplifier will be replaced tomorrow (Tuesday the 26th) afternoon. For the rest of the week we will be soak testing the new amp and the new receiver system. If you use the new system and detect ANY problems, please let us know. We are interested in even the smallest of problems. I will email you all with an update later in the week. Other news: We now have MEG compatible lenses and lens holder. We need people/projects who use subjects that normally wear glasses to try it out and give us feedback. A 'how-to' session will be included in the Thursday session on the 5th of July. -- Gary Green York Neuroimaging Centre The Biocentre York Science Park Innovation Way Heslington York YO10 5DG http://www.ynic.york.ac.uk tel. 01904 435349 fax 01904 435356 mobile 07986 778954

summer students
by Tim Andrews 19 Jun '07

19 Jun '07

Dear All, Silke and I interviewed a number of our current second year students yesterday for a summer bursary and were impressed by the standard. Many of the students expressed an interest in pursuing a research career in neuroimaging. We only had a couple of bursarys available, so I was wondering if anyone needed some help over the summer. I have spoken to a few of you about this, but, if anyone else is interested, let me know and I will be able to advise on suitable candidates. Best wishes, Tim -- Dr Tim Andrews Department of Psychology University of York York, YO10 5DD UK Tel: 44-1904-434356 Fax: 44-1904-433181 http://www-users.york.ac.uk/~ta505/ http://www.york.ac.uk/depts/psych/www/admissions/cns/

MRI scanning procedures
by a.morland＠psychology.york.ac.uk 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Dear All, Unfortunately my previous messages concerning MRI scanning appear not to have had the desired effect. Many investigators are still not fully prepared for their scan sessions and are expecting far too much from Chris, our new radiographer. This is putting her in an unfair position. The attached form will therefore have to be completed by investigators for all MRI projects. No form = No Scan! An example of a completed form is also attached for your reference. Chris has started to compile a file of the forms so that she will be able to set up scans appropriately for each project. If any student investigators you supervise are not reached by this message, please liaise with them so that forms are submitted ahead of any scan sessions they intend to book. Tony
