Hello all, Just a quick note to let you know about this afternoon's session. The intention is to very briefly go through the talks that were given at MEG -UK and mention some of the common themes in terms of the problems people are experiencing and potential ways of addressing them. In fact these issues overlap quite heavily with the discussions planned for next week. We don't really want to preempt that discussion, so this afternoon's session will probably be quite short, and to some extent a scene setter for the debate proper on Feb the 5th. That said as ever, all are welcome. Thanks, Sam

International MEG Conference, Athens 2009

by awe1＠psych.york.ac.uk

---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- Subject: International MEG Conference, Athens 2009 From: "Fuller, Susan V" <Susan.V.Fuller(a)uth.tmc.edu> Date: Fri, January 23, 2009 7:02 pm To: "Papanicolaou, Andrew C" <Andrew.C.Papanicolaou(a)uth.tmc.edu> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Colleagues: I am pleased to announce the 3rd biannual conference of the International Society for the Advancement of Clinical Magnetoencephalography (ISACM) scheduled for September 4th and 5th 2009 in Athens, Greece. The first meeting in Xylokastro, Greece (http://www.uth.tmc.edu/clinicalneuro/mega2005.htm) in 2005 laid the foundations of the Society and resulted in the election of an executive board and the first president, Professor Nakasato, who chaired the second meeting in August of 2007 in the beautiful Matsushima Bay, Japan (http://www.knt.co.jp/ec/2007/isacm/). As it was the case with the two previous meetings, the emphasis of the upcoming one will be on professional issues of great importance to our young Society, to be discussed in a series of plenary round tables, and on new clinical research findings to be presented in the form of posters. You will find the details of the meeting, the associated social events, as well as suggestions for enjoying Greece before and after the conference, on the following website (http://www.uth.tmc.edu/clinicalneuro/ISACM/Welcome.htm). I am looking forward to seeing you in Athens. A.C. Papanicolaou Conference Chairman The University of Texas Medical School 1333 Moursund Street, Suite H 114 Houston, TX 77030 TEL: (713)797-7571 FAX: (713) 797-7590 Andrew.C.Papanicolaou(a)uth.tmc.edu <mailto:Andrew.C.Papanicolaou@uth.tmc.edu> http://www.uth.tmc.edu/clinicalneuro/ <blocked::http://www.uth.tmc.edu/clinicalneuro/>

[Fwd: YNiC seminar 15th January] - today

by Gary Green

Dear Users Today, David Halliday from the Department of Electronics will give a talk. David's talk will be followed by a YNiC project presentation by Philip Quinlan and Nikos Andreadis titled "Switching tasks and anticipating switching tasks: what is the brain doing?". These events will take place at YNiC from 4-5 pm. The title of David's talk is "The Noisy Brain – An introduction to time and frequency domain signal processing techniques for neurophysiological data". http://www.elec.york.ac.uk/staff/dh20.html Abstract: A common feature of neurophysiological signals is the presence of noise, i.e. the signals have the appearance of random processes. In addition, records taken under similar conditions do not have a similar appearance. Analysis of such data therefore requires the use of some form of statistical analysis. For example sample records of EEG recorded from different scalp locations may not look alike, but a statistical analysis may demonstrate that the records share a common underlying rhythm. The field of time-series analysis provides a conceptual and mathematical framework within which random signals, including neurophysiological signals, can be analysed. Two approaches are traditionally used in the analysis of time series – these are the time and frequency domain approaches. The frequency domain approach is generally based on Fourier methods. In the case of two or more simultaneously recorded signals, an important concept is that of correlation, the objective being to assess to what extent the activity in one signal is correlated with that in a second signal. A key frequency domain parameter in this context is the coherence function, which provides a normative linear measure of association between two time series, as a function of frequency. The talk will consider time and frequency domain analyses of neurophysiological signals, including coherence functions. These will be developed within a unified framework where time and frequency domain techniques sit naturally alongside each other, and can be used as complementary forms of analysis. A number of extensions will be discussed, which look at alternative measures of correlation (phase synchronization, causal measures); deal with time dependency (Wavelets, Kalman filtering) and non linearities (higher order spectra). Everyone is welcome to attend. Best wishes Rebecca -- ************************************************************************ Dr. Rebecca E.

Cortical plasticity: Annual meeting of the British Association for

by awe1＠psych.york.ac.uk

From: AHPD Departmental Contacts [mailto:AHPD-DEPTS@JISCMAIL.AC.UK] On Behalf Of John Draper Sent: 17 December 2008 15:10 To: AHPD-DEPTS(a)JISCMAIL.AC.UK Subject: FW: Call for Symposia: Annual meeting of the British Association for Cognitive Neuroscience Dear colleague, Re: Annual meeting of the British Association for Cognitive Neuroscience (BACN) I would like to invite you to submit proposals for symposia for our 2009 meeting, to be held from 21st - 23rd September at the UCL Institute of Child Health, London. The general theme of this year's meeting is 'cortical plasticity' - a broad theme, but one that is critical for understanding cognition at a number of levels: from sensory learning to language and memory. It also requires convergent methodologies and consequently we encourage you to represent the variety of modern neuroscience methods to address questions such as cognitive development, higher brain function or recovery from injury. We are also open to any alternative suggestions. We are a relatively young society that is keen to support scientists at the beginning of their career. We therefore provide several bursaries for graduate students and a poster prize for exceptional undergraduate projects, the best of whom will be invited to give a platform presentation. There will be opportunity to interact with world-leading neuroscientists from nearby UCL-based neuroscience centres (e.g. the Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging and the Institute for Cognitive Neuroscience). We also promise a lively social programme - something BACN is well renowned for! Please submit your symposium proposals by the 1st February 2009 directly to me (T.Baldeweg(a)ich.ucl.ac.uk ). Please include a provisional list of speakers and titles. Symposia usually last from 1.5h to 2.5h. Free registration for participants and contributions towards travel expenses are available. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Torsten Baldeweg Chairman BACN PS: For those of you who missed our last meeting in Swansea, a summary is published by ACNR ( <http://www.acnr.co.uk/ND08/ACNRND08_conference.pdf> http://www.acnr.co.uk/ND08/ACNRND08_conference.pdf ).

Induced and evoked responses in MEG

by awe1＠psych.york.ac.uk

Dear all The first slide in the attached Powerpoint presentation was generated by Piers for a paper based on data gathered at Aston. The stimuli were written words. The figure shows the time-frequency plots for virtual electrodes inserted at 4 different sites in the brain, with power represented in the colour. There are 3 plots for each site showing evoked power (left), total power (middle) and induced power (right). These figures were generated in Fieldtrip where the time-frequency plots are computed with respect to a baseline. Piers has added a couple of slides which shows the steps in Fieldtrip that he used. The left middle occipital gyrus (MOGl) site is closest to primary visual cortex where the words first arrive. You will notice that the power there is mostly evoked and that the induced component is small. The same is true at the left mid fusiform gyrus (= the 'visual word form area'). Contrast that with the left and right inferior frontal gyri (IFGl), which are further from primary visual cortex. There is some evoked power at those sites, but most of the total power is induced. It seems to me that the lessons could be: 1. If you plot total power, do not automatically assume that it will be mostly induced. There are conditions and sites (close to primary sensory cortex?) where the total power may be mostly evoked. 2. Do not plot total power and call it "induced". It may not be. 3. It could be that the more synapses a response passes through, the more the power shifts from evoked to induced. That could be because different stimuli complete the passage from early to late sites at different rates in different participants with the result that the response gets jittered in time, disappears in the evoked averaging, and appears instead in the induced response. Induced responses may not always be qualitatively different from from evoked responses - they may simply be smeared out in time. (Note: This is not to deny the existence of induced responses which are NOT the result of stereotypical waveforms + jitter, but rather represents increased power in several oscillators within a given time period.) 4. It would be a good thing if the VE tools we develop in YNiC for generating time-frequency plots were capable of distinguishing evoked from induced responses and plotting them separately. Please discuss in rare pre-Christmas moments of sobriety. Andy
