Hello all, Sorry for the late notification, but this afternoon between 1:45 and 3:45 there will be a group of Psychology A-level teachers visiting the centre. They will be spending most of their time in the scan rooms, but there will be a couple of talks in open plan, though they won't be using the computers. Thanks, Sam -- Sam Johnson Science Manager, York NeuroImaging Centre University of York http://www.ynic.york.ac.uk

hygiene

by Gary Green

Dear Colleagues As you know the WHO has announced that a flu pandemic is imminent. Can I take this opportunity to remind everyone who uses YNiC that as a clinical facility we have to be especially vigilant with respect to hygiene. Please use the antiseptic gel dispensers, to clean your hands, on entry and exit from the MRI and MEG corridors. This is both for protection of you and the participants. thanks -- Gary Green Director York Neuroimaging Centre The Biocentre York Science Park Innovation Way Heslington York YO10 5DG http://www.ynic.york.ac.uk tel. +44 (0) 1904 435349 fax +44 (0) 1904 435356 mobile +44 (0) 788 191 3004

Aims The aim of the conference is to present the current status of research into the neurobiology of language, at the crossroads of neuroscience, linguistics, and experimental psychology. Topics will relate to the neural mechanisms underlying perceptual, cognitive, motor, and linguistic processes used to produce and to understand language in both children and adults. The conference will feature poster and slide presentations as well as keynote presentations by several of the field's most distinguished researchers. The Committee NLC is organized by an international committee of experts on Language Neurobiology, including Jeffrey Binder, Sheila Blumstein, Laurent Cohen, Angela Friederici, Vincent Gracco, Peter Hagoort, Marta Kutas, Alec Marantz, David Poeppel, Cathy Price, Kunioshi Sakai, Riitta Salmelin, Bradley Schlagger, and Richard Wise, under the supervision of Steven L.

Downtime

by Mark Hymers

Dear all, Due to the need to do some systems maintanence, YNiC will be shutting at 5pm on Thursday evening (16th) and all computers (including the cluster) will be temporarily switched off. We will re-open as normal on Friday morning (17th). This means that no cluster jobs will be able to be left running on Thursday night and all open plan desktops will be logged out. This does not affect the Psychology email server. Apologies for the short notice and inconvenience. Mark -- Mark Hymers York Neuroimaging Centre

Data Protection Policy

by Mark Hymers

Dear all, We've just updated the YNiC Data Protection policy which is now available at https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/information/policies/data-protection At the same time, there is now a dedicated contact address (data(a)ynic.york.ac.uk) for handling all data protection and image/CD requests. We hope this will simplify and speed up future requests and would appreciate it if everyone could use this address. Whilst updating the document, we have also revised the "Use of Computer Facilities" policy to point at the Data Protection policy. The new rules are available at: https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/information/policies/computer-usage They are basically the same as the old ones but explicitly require users to follow the Data Protection Policy (we're apparently required to put this in). The rules for computer use now read as follows: ================================================================================ These regulations apply to all computer users (staff, students and visitors) at YNiC. They are subject to change after the proper notification of users. 1. All users must abide by the University of York's Regulations for use of computing facilities (http://www.york.ac.uk/admin/aso/ordreg/r11.htm) and the regulations therein, specifically the use of JANET and SuperJANET, available directly here (http://www.ja.net/services/publications/policy/aup.html). 2. All users are required to familiarise themselves with the YNiC Data Protection policy and acknowledge that data must not be removed from YNiC without express, written permission from the Data Protection Officer of YNiC. Contact information and the policy are available at https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/information/policies/data-protection ================================================================================ Apologies for the tedious nature of this message. Please direct any queries to data(a)ynic.york.ac.uk Thanks, Mark -- Mark Hymers York Neuroimaging Centre

MRI Pulse Programming

by Mark Hymers

Dear all, On Monday 9th at 16:00 in the YNiC open plan area there will be a presentation entitled: "An Introduction to MRI Pulse Programming on GE systems" The talk will cover a brief introduction to the MRI scanner hardware and what actually happens when you prescribe a series and press the scan button. The talk will not include (many) code examples but should be of interest to anyone who wishes to start working on pulse sequences. All welcome. Thanks, Mark -- Mark Hymers York Neuroimaging Centre

Funding news

by Antony Morland

Dear All, I am delighted to announce that Tim Andrews and Andy Young have been awarded a 3-year project grant funded by Wellcome Trust. The title and abstract of the grant are copied below. I am sure you will all join me in congratulating Tim and Andy on this award. I would also like to thank them for all the hard work they have put in to applying multiple times for external funding. It is reassuring to know and a pleasure to see that all their efforts have now paid off. Tony The Neural Basis of Familiar Face Perception The aim of this proposal is to understand further the neural processes involved in the recognition of familiar faces. It is well established that while people are very good at identifying familiar faces (even from very low quality images), whereas performance in recognition or matching of unfamiliar faces is poor. The main objective of this proposal is to compare and contrast how structural information about familiar and unfamiliar faces is represented in the human brain using fMRI in combination with recent developments in computer graphics and image analysis.

YNiC seminar 5th March

by rem

Dear Users This week two Users will be reporting on developments in their MEG projects: 1) Andy Young "Impact of responses on subsequent trials in MEG" 2) Sam Mathias "What are the neural correlates of detecting and naming the direction of changes in pitch?" A number of psychophysical experiments have suggested that simply detecting a change in frequency between pure tones and naming the direction of pitch shifts rely on separable mechanisms. To my knowledge, no neuroimaging studies have investigated this directly. In the presentation I will give a (very) brief outline of the relevant literature and explain the motivation behind my proposal for an MEG study to be conducted at YNiC. Everyone is welcome to attend. Best wishes Rebecca -- ************************************************************************ Dr. Rebecca E.

4D Neuroimaging

by Gary Green

Dear fellow MEG users It with great sadness that I heard yesterday of the demise of 4D Neuroimaging corporation. 4D had been producing MEG equipment for 25 years and had been the most stable of the manufacturers. Unfortunately the financial situation has hit their funders very hard and they are no longer able to provide funds such that 4D can continue trading. There is an attempt to set up a service division as most of the parts that comprise a MEG machine are made by third parties. Unfortunately there is no guarantee that this can be achieved. We are carefully considering all of the options and contingencies that will be necessary to keep MEG here in York. I will endeavour to keep you informed of our progress in doing so. At the moment the equipment is working well and research and clinical studies are continuing as normal. Please do not be put off carrying out an MEG study (yet). Our thoughts should be with the staff at 4D. All have been laid off without last months salary, no redundancy or pension. They have been good to us and I am sorry that the relationship will come to an end Gary -- Gary Green York Neuroimaging Centre The Biocentre York Science Park Innovation Way Heslington York YO10 5DG http://www.ynic.york.ac.uk tel. 01904 435349 fax 01904 435356 mobile 07986 778954
