Hello everyone, Things to note this week: 1. *YNiC will be closed 27th-29th of March for vital maintenance. *Some scans will be operating in this period due to unexpected scanner downtime but the facility will not be accepting new bookings and will not be open for other users. 2. A number of YNiC forms have been updated. *Please ensure that you use the latest forms from the YNiC website <https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/forms>* and, as usual, please read all forms in full before signing. Note that we will no longer start training operators until their PI/ line manager signs to confirm that they have completed all statutory University training. 3. We have provisionally scheduled our next *User Induction on Thursday the 4th of April at 10am*. Subject to availability and interest. Please ask any relevant students/staff to email support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk to sign up if they intend to start using the centre. 4. The GE scanner is down for urgent maintenance, we will have GE engineers in to replace the cold head during the closure, with *normal service on GE expected to resume next week from Monday the 1st of April. * Best wishes, Rich -- Richard Aveyard, Senior Research Technician York NeuroImaging Centre University of York, UK
