Hi All,
Some more details about the talk today.
Koen Haak
*Title*: Connectopic mapping with resting state fMRI
*Abstract*: How does the organisation of the human brain in terms of its
connectivity subserve cognitive and perceptual processes? In this talk, I
will give an overview of my work on mapping individualised connection
topographies based on the spontaneous brain activity fluctuations that
occur when a subject is at rest (resting-state fMRI). I will demonstrate
that these connection topographies predict subject-by-subject differences
in behaviour and I will discuss how this approach opens up the possibility
of studying the neural underpinnings of human perception and cognition
across thousands of individuals, from neonates to the elderly, in health
and disease.
Best wishes
Tony

Hello All,
We have a visitor, Koen Haak, who will be giving a talk about his modelling
work. He has developed 'Connective Field' modelling for fMRI and applied
it to the visual system and more generally. He'll start at 4pm Thursday
and we will be heading out for a meal afterwards, if anyone would like to
join us.
Upcoming closures and changes to access to the centre:
1. December 13 -15th. We will be closed. There will be no access to
the centre other than for staff. We will be performing IT server
upgrades. This will also mean that all remote services will be unavailable.
2. Week Commencing 18th December. There will be no operator slots
during this week. We will be managing the year end issues associated with
the period of closure for the Christmas break.
3. Week Commencing 25th December. The centre will be closed. No access
will be possible. Remote services will be available.
4. YNiC will open 2nd January and operator cover will commence 4th
January.
5. Week Commencing 8th January normal service resumes
Something to note: The university spam filters have been diverting many
messages to YNIC-Users to spam folders. We have updated things at our end,
so hope this will no longer occur.
