Hi everyone
Just a reminder that the first YNiC Seminar of the year is today at 4pm
by Dr David Watson (Reconstructing cortical gradients from functional
connectivity during naturalistic viewing). The seminar will be held in
Openplan at YNiC and will be broadcast over Zoom,
(https://york-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/91726652237 Meeting ID: 917 2665 2237,
Password: YO10).
These seminars will combine elements of the previous Thursday Seminars
and Monthly Science Socials; with presentations from YNiC researchers on
current/upcoming projects, 'journal club' style talks, and technical
demonstrations.
Thanks

Hi everyone
Happy New Year!
I've got a few reminders for you today, as well as some information on the
resumption of YNiC Seminars, and the development of MEG processing software.
*YNiC Thursday Seminar*
We are bringing back the YNiC Seminars this year - hooray!
These will take place on the first Thursday of every month at 4pm,
initially in an online format (https://york-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/91726652237
<https://www.google.com/url?q=https://york-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/91726652237&sa=D&…>
Meeting ID: 917 2665 2237, Password: YO10).
These seminars will combine elements of the previous Thursday Seminars and
Monthly Science Socials; with presentations from YNiC researchers on
current/upcoming projects, 'journal club' style talks, and technical
demonstrations.
The first Seminar will be held on *Thursday 3rd February* at *4pm* via
Zoom, with a presentation from Dr David Watson. I will send a reminder on
the day.
*MEG*
*Thanks to a lot of hard work from Rich Aveyard and previous YNiC staff
member Mark Hymers, their work has been included in the public repository
of the Brainstorm MEG analysis package. This allows external users to
process MEG data generated in YNiC, paving the way for future
collaborations and contributions to open data repositories.*
*General Consent Forms*
If your participants are uploading their General Consent form via our new
Upload System, please make sure that they follow the instructions on how to
complete the General Consent form correctly (see attached documents).
The formatting of the form must not be changed in order for it to be
correctly uploaded to our database. Any forms that are filled in
incorrectly, or are incomplete, will be refused.
*YNiC User Inductions*
If you are aware of any new students/staff that will require access to YNiC
and/or an IT account, they must attend a YNiC user induction. Our next
induction date will be *Wednesday 19th January* at *12:30pm*. Please ask
them to contact support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk to sign up. Spaces are limited and
will be filled on a first-come first-served basis.
*Level 0 Operator Training*
Our next scheduled Level 0 training session will take place on *Thursday
10th February* at *13:00 - 15:00*. Please note that users requesting Level
0 training should be a PhD, RA/Postdoc, or staff, and should already have a
project proposal submitted to YNiC. Please email support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk
if you have any questions or wish to book on to this session. Please note
that sessions are limited to 4 trainees, which will be allocated on a
first-come first-served basis. Training must be booked at least a week
before the session date, in order to reserve the scanner booking.
All operators must attend an 'Emergency First Aid at Work' one-day training
course. Courses should be organised by the project PI with a relevant
training provider (e.g. St Johns Ambulance, Red Cross); these providers can
also run group training sessions (8 or more people) on-site, so labs may
wish to coordinate their operators to all attend training on the same day,
at a location of your choice.
I hope you have all had a good week, and enjoy the upcoming weekend.
Cheers
Lauren
