Dear ,
I hope you're well! I'm reaching out as a volunteer with Women in
Neuroscience UK (WiNUK) to ask if you'd be willing to share the

WiNUK is currently accepting nominations for our 2025 Awards, which
celebrate the achievements of female-identifying neuroscientists and
allies across the UK. We’d love your help in spreading the word and
encouraging nominations from your community.
It would be great if you could share the message below to your social

next induction will be on *Tuesday the 5th of August, at 10:00am*. Please
ask them to contact support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk to sign up.

*Door Fobs*
If you have a YNiC door fob you no longer need, you can return it to

you!
*Weekend Access*
Just a quick reminder that YNiC Open Plan is available for students to use
over the weekend. You will however need KABA access to enter the main
