Dear Colleagues
I thought you might like to see pictures of the new MRI magnet and the
serial number plate showing that it is ours.
I am also pleased to be able to say the building is ready for the roof
to be completed. This will start next week and internal works then get
under way.
Gary
Hi All,
I apologise for the length of this email but there is a lot of
information to convey.
Changes in the staffing level and responsibilities within YNiC and the
increased no. of groups with external funding have created a situation
where certain users are now finding it difficult to access the MRI scanner.
There are number of discrete components to this situation which, when we
were relatively quiet and better staffed, were not generally
problematical. The situation is now different and the combination of
these components has now stalled certain aspects of our work here.
There is, unfortunately, no magic bullet to the problem. However the
following actions should go some way to resolving the immediate crisis
we seem to have and put in place some the framework for ensuring we
don't end up here again.
Short term.
This is where our biggest problem lies, we have a no. of projects which
are internally funded and are therefore only able to book 1 week in
advance. Some of these are near completion and it is therefore entirely
unreasonable to expect these groups to train a level 1 and level 0
operator to allow them to scan out of hours.
Solution: I have set aside 5 hours per week (Mon - Fri 9am - 10am). Only
the following projects have been identified as qualifying for these time
slots. P1285,P1259 and P1229. Bookings have to be made by telephone call
to reception who will amend the booking slot to contain your project
details. If you believe your project qualifies please email Tony Morland
to make your case.
Medium Term.
In order for projects/groups to be able to perform their own scanning in
unsupervised time they need to be able to access appropriate supervised
training. The existing training programme for level 1 operators has
certain inefficiencies, which if correctly addressed should allow us to
'accelerate' the training without compromising safety.
Solution: Discrete training sessions will be set aside (3hours per week)
for console training during which multiple trainees will be able to go
through the process of safety screening, positioning, protocol set up
and data acquisition multiple times to 'embed' the process more quickly
(several done in quick succession is far more valuable than a larger
no. done over a longer time period). It must be stressed these sessions
are for training only, project data will not be acquired in 'training
sessions'. Once this initial training exercise has been adequately
completed. The project will then be allowed to book into 'ring fenced'
training slots where project data can be acquired and for which they
will be charged at the appropriate rate. I have set aside a further 4
hours per week where booking is restricted to those groups that have
been involved in the 'bulk' training sessions and which will cover off
project specific set up etc. Only once the supervising level 2 operator
is satisfied with the trainees competence will they be signed off as an
operator.
Long Term
Hopefully once our current 'crisis' of availability is passed the need
for the 'short term' proposal reservations will diminish if not
disappear altogether.
The requirement for an ongoing training programme will remain, however,
the amount of time we need to commit to it will be depend upon nos of
new projects and availalability of operators within labs.
Proposal: All new projects whether PhD, externally funded internal or
external will need to declare whether or not they have a trained
operator available for the proposed duration of their study. Internally
funded PhD projects will be required to identify their own operator or
an appropriate individual to be trained as such. Appropriate 'initial
bulk' training sessions and PhD training slots will be determined
probably at the start of each term.
Kind regards

Project area:
Difficulty concentrating is symptomatic of anxiety because attention is
often compromised by biases to negative information. A relatively new
brain-imaging technique called closed loop training (CLT) could be used
to enhance attentional control and diminish bias to negative
information. CLT using real-time functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging
neurofeedback, provides a way of monitoring cognitive and underlying
neural states, and allows the real-time and continuous adaption of these
states to optimise performance. The technique involves simultaneously
measuring and analysing the signal derived from an fMRI experiment that
utilises attentional control, and feeding it back to the participant in
real time.
This study aims to:
a) Examine whether participants with high levels of trait anxiety can
use CLT to self-regulate or adjust their cognitive strategy and alter
their neural response in real time.
b) Evaluate if specific executive operations crucial for attentional
control (set shifting and inhibition) can be regulated by CLT.

Applications are invited for
*** postdoctoral positions in neurofeedback ***
in a consortium with Aapo Hyvarinen (U of Helsinki), Lauri Parkkonen
(Aalto U, formerly known as Helsinki U of Technology), and Tiina
Parviainen (U of Jyvaskyla), based in Finland.
The consortium will develop neurofeedback methods to facilitate
sustained attention, i.e. long-term attention on a specific task.
Sustained attention is generally difficult and often leads to a state
with wandering thoughts. We aim to develop a system which detects such
states by real-time analysis of MEG signals, and alerts the subject,
which enables bringing attention back to the original task. As an
application of the neurofeedback method we consider mindfulness
training, in which sustained attention is particularly crucial.
The consortium partners span a wide range of expertise: machine
learning, MEG methods, MEG experimentation, and cognitive neuroscience.
Thus, we invite applications from candidates with various backgrounds,
including PhDs in neuroimaging, computer science, psychology, and
engineering. Candidates with experience in neuroscience are preferred
but exceptionally qualified candidates with a strong commitment to
neuroscience are also eligible. Candidates who are likely to obtain a
PhD degree very soon can also apply.
The Aalto and Jyvaskyla sites possess state-of-the-art MEG laboratories
with Elekta systems. Salaries are internationally competitive, often
exceeding EUR 3500 per month. The starting date and the duration are
negotiable, but an early start is preferred.
Please send your application to: aapo.hyvarinen [at] helsinki.fi .
Attach at least: CV, publication list, a short statement of research
interests, and names and email addresses of 2-3 people willing to give
their opinion on your competence. Review of applications will start on
1st April and continue until the position is filled.

UCLA Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in the Neuropsychology of HIV/AIDS
The Postdoctoral Fellowship Program in Neuropsychology at UCLA’s Semel
Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior and Resnick
Neuropsychiatric Hospital announces the immediate availability of one
NIMH supported postdoctoral fellowship with a focus on the
neuropsychological and neuroanatomical effects of HIV infection and
related diseases. This training program is designed to prepare fellows
for academic careers in clinical neuropsychology. Fellows have the
opportunity to conduct their own research as well as collaborate with
faculty on ongoing research projects. Current projects funded by the NIH
and other sources include study of the neurocognitive sequelae of HIV
infection, structural and functional neuroimaging abnormalities in HIV
and Hepatitis C infection, “real world” functional consequences of
neurocognitive dysfunction, health disparities associated with ethnic
minority/lower SES status, neurogenetics of HIV-associated
neurocognitive disorder, and correlative study relating ante-mortem
neuropsychological functioning with human neural tissues obtained from a
cohort of deceased HIV infected participants. Across these and other
projects, and in conjuction with the UCLA Center for Cognitive
Neuroscience and the Greater Los Angeles VA Healthcare System, we use
multimodal MRI (MRS, DTI, volumetry, fMRI – both task and resting state,
PET) to study neuroinflammatory diseases (HIV, Hepatitis C), substance
abuse, psychosocial factors (e.g. stress) as well as longitudinal
effects of medication and medication adherence on neural structure and
neuropsychological function. Research on other topics (e.g., drug abuse,
aging) is also encouraged. Extensive didactics, including training in
grant preparation, are a central component of the fellowship. While the
postdoc emphasizes research training, clinical experience is also
provided.
Stipend for 2016-17 will be $42,840 + health insurance for the fellow,
$1,200/year in travel, up to $4,500/year for workshop/seminar tuition,
and 3-4 weeks vacation/educational travel leave. Because of funding
constraints, the candidate must be able to start prior to July 1, 2016.
Applications will be reviewed until the position is filled.
Questions concerning the HIV research fellowship can be directed to
Charles Hinkin, Ph.D., ABPP at chinkin(a)ucla.edu or (310) 268-4357. For

=============================================
A Postdoctoral position is available at University College London to
investigate visuomotor decision-making during childhood. The post will
be based at the Division of Psychology and Language Sciences and at the
Dept. of Visual Neuroscience, Institute of Ophthalmology. The
post-holder will work on a project funded by the Economic and Social
Research Council with Dr. Tessa Dekker. The post is for 24 months, with
scope for a 6-month extension, and involves international
collaborations, e.g., with New York University, and The Free University,
Amsterdam. To apply go to www.jobs.ac.uk, or UCL human resources, job
opportunities, reference: 1538671.
Scientific aims of project: Successful execution of everyday risky
actions such as crossing a road or catching a ball requires
risk-assessment. This involves a complex interplay between the
perceptual- and motor system, and cost-factors in the environment. Some
of our lab’s recent work suggests that these processes are still
suboptimal in children aged 6-11 years, potentially placing these
children at unnecessary risk (Dekker & Nardini, 2015). This research
will help increase understanding of children’s suboptimal visuomotor
choices, and how, when, and why they improve with age.
Tasks/Techniques: The successful candidate will help develop, run,
analyse, and report studies involving (a) new child-friendly tasks that
emulate real-life risky actions (e.g., using life-size installations,
motion capture technology, and touchscreen displays), (b) neuroimaging
paradigms (fMRI) that track change at the level of neural
representation, and (c) fitting behavioural and fMRI data with
quantitative models of neurocognitive processing (such as Bayesian ideal
observer models), to investigate which factors may explain developmental
change. The research focus can be determined in part by the successful
candidate’s expertise and interests, and there is scope for extending
the work to clinical groups, such as patients with visual impairments at
Moorfields Eye Hospital.
Personal Requirements: The successful candidate will have a PhD in
cognitive neuroscience or a related field, be technically competent,
have affinity with maths and good programming skills (e.g., in Matlab).
They also must have excellent communication skills in English to
interact effectively with child participants, parents, and the
scientific community. Experience in behavioural psychophysics, movement
science, and/or developmental science are desirable.
