Dear All
I will attempt to chair a discussion this Wednesday (11th) at 4pm on
virtual electrode analysis in MEG. The meeting is the first of the
proposed YNiC Analysis Support Colloquia looking at current and
future needs for data analysis (MRI as well as MEG). The meeting
will take place in the Psychology
lecture theatre (B020), NOT in YNiC.
Virtual electrode analyses probe individual points in the brain.
They potentially allow you to chart the response at that location
over time, taking full advantage of the capacity of MEG to record
changes over time with millisecond accuracy. Some of us feel,
possibly naively, that the ability to do virtual electrode analyses
at a group as well as an individual level is all that stands between
us and world domination.
Piers will begin by demonstrating some group level analyses that he
and colleagues have done as part of an MEG study that included
written words, consonant strings and faces as stimuli. The aim of
the session, however, is not to discuss the meaning of different
studies, but what what forms of virtual electrode analysis are
possible, and what we could hope to learn from them.
If you have attempted any virtual electrode analyses, or think that
you may want to do some in future, please bring them along. Anyone
who has any results to share is welcome to bring along some slides.
So that's Wednesday at 4pm in Psychology B020.

Dear all,
This is just to confirm that Andy Ellis will be chairing the first YNiC
Analysis Support Colloquia on Wednesday February 13th. The session will
take place in B020 at 4pm.
Andy will forward an agenda in due course which will detail the specific
questions he will raise in the session. However, following his previous
mailing to ynic-users, the general topic of the session will be Virtual
Electrode Analysis of MEG data.
We look forward to seeing you there. Here's hoping for a good turnout at
the inaugural session of what we hope will be a mutually beneficial
series of colloquia.
Thanks,
Michael

Dear all,
this is just a reminder that the MEG masterclass will take place
tomorrow. A number of you contacted Andre at the start of the
masterclasses to let him know that you are likely to attend these
sessions. If you haven't previously let him know of your interest for
the MEG class, and would like to attend, please contact *me* so that we
can have a rough idea of numbers.
The session will take place from 2.30 till 5.00 in Open Plan.
Thanks,
Michael
