Hello All, We will be a little short staffed at the end of this week and next as some of our team are going to be away on leave and at conferences. All operator covered slots will be covered. We have been making some good progress testing new imaging sequences on the Siemens scanner, which later in the year should make some new experimental approaches possible for users. Best wishes Tony -- Antony Morland, PhD. Director, York Neuroimaging Centre Department of Psychology, University of York, York YO10 5DD, UK.

Changes to booking scanners
by Antony Morland 02 May '18

02 May '18

Hello All, I have had some discussions with investigators recently relating to booking scanners. There are some funded labs that have the resources and will benefit scientifically from scanning for more than seven hours per week, which is our normal upper limit. We currently have capacity on the scanners, so our limit is artificially restricting research throughput. We have decided therefore to lift the limits on booking for funded projects for a trial period until the end of the calendar year. While this will offer benefits to funded projects, it may have adverse effects on other uses of the scanners. Being mindful of that, we are (1) trialing the system and (2) asking funded projects to book the scanner responsibly. Considering the second point, could you please get in touch if you would like the limit on your funded project raised - email support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk. Also, if you do have a raised limit and wish to book intensive use of the scanners please do so with as much lead time as possible - you will have a six week window - because this will help other users plan their work. Best wishes Tony -- Antony Morland, PhD. Director, York Neuroimaging Centre Department of Psychology, University of York, York YO10 5DD, UK.

YNIC Science Day
by Jonny Smallwood 01 May '18

01 May '18

Hello everyone, Yesterday at the YNIC Science Committee we decided to hold YNIC Science Day on Friday the 14th of September. The plan is to us the afternoon to showcase the research at YNIC and provide an overview of the methods that we are applying to understand the neural mechanisms that underpin psychological functioning. This will take place in B020. The basic idea is to hold some short talks from a wide range of PhDs and Post docs to give a snap shot of the type of studies we conduct (similar to the data blitz's that take place at conferences), as well as some more focused talks that highlight the methods that we use to understand psychological processes. For those of you interested please put this date into your diaries! I will be in touch with the ECRs to solicit people for the short talks, but if anyone is especially interested to present their research they can contact me. Jonny -- Jonathan Smallwood, Reader in Psychology / Cognitive Neuroscience Room C023, Department of Psychology, University of York, England. YO10 4PH. Telephone: 01904 324651

Hello All, We are no starting a busy period for the centre as we host our MSc student projects. We are also in the process of installing some new functional and spectroscopy imaging sequences on the Siemens scanner that we hope will prove useful to researchers.

New approach to clinical scanning
by Antony Morland 12 Apr '18

12 Apr '18

Hello All, We are working on a new way to deliver our clinical services. When possible we are focusing our efforts on scanning on Monday afternoons and into early evening. This will allow us to allocate the required resources for the service in a more efficient way, while also making the scanners free for the rest of the week. It should be noted however that there may be some other occasions during the week when we may have to scan urgent cases. Best wishes Tony -- Antony Morland, PhD. Director, York Neuroimaging Centre Department of Psychology, University of York, York YO10 5DD, UK.
