Dear YNiC researchers,

Hello All,
The keen amongst you will have noticed that there is no operator cover
available next week (14-18th April). This is necessary to accommodate
part-time working patterns and annual leave for YNiC staff.
The Centre's IT facilities will continue to be available, and projects can
continue running scans wherein they can provide their own operators. There
will, however, be limited support available to resolve any problems that
arise. As ever, please ensure that you get any necessary level 3 operator
sign-offs completed as far ahead as possible: there will be extremely
limited availability next week.
Please get in touch as soon as possible if you anticipate this causing
undue disruption.
Best Wishes,
Rich

Hello,
We would like to remind everyone that the remote desktop is not suitable
for running computationally heavy tasks or resource-intensive processes. To
ensure optimal performance for all users, please send resource-heavy
computations (such as large data processing tasks) to the cluster. It is
designed to handle such workloads more efficiently and with minimal
disruption to others.
If you're unsure how to access the cluster or need assistance with setting
up your jobs please let us know (email support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk).
Many thanks,
Jennifer

Hello everyone,
Just a reminder that we have MRI safe glasses that go up in increments of
.5, however your participants will be more comfortable in contacts if they
have them; especially in the smaller head coils.
Thanks,
YNiC Techs :).
