Dear all, We like to have posters in the YNiC open plan area that represent the diversity of research we conduct at YNiC. If you have any recent posters you would be happy to have displayed, please bring them in and give them to one of the YNiC staff. That way we can keep things a bit more up to date!

Office space now available
by Aidan Horner 28 Feb '24

28 Feb '24

Dear all, As mentioned in the recent Psychology staff meeting, we have now made an office in YNiC available for everyone to use. There are 3 desks in the office, 2 with YNiC desktop PCs and one is a hot desk with a single USB-C plugin. The office is the first one on the left as you come into the open plan area in YNiC. If you would like to spend more time in YNiC but want a bit more privacy than the open plan area allows for, then this is the space for you! For now the room isn't bookable. We will see how the room is used and by whom over the coming months and can reassess whether it should be a bookable space in the future. The main message is, come spend some time in YNiC and talk to us about your awesome research plans! Best wishes, Aidan -- ===================================================================== York Neuroimaging Centre (YNiC) Directors Prof Beth Jefferies - Co-Director for Research Dr Aidan Horner - Co-Director for Strategy & Operations https://www.york.ac.uk/psychology/research/york-neuroimaging-centre/ =====================================================================

MRI scan cancellations
by Richard Aveyard 22 Feb '24

22 Feb '24

Hi All, The Siemens scanner has developed a serious fault this afternoon, and it is not currently operational. An engineer has inspected the system and diagnosed the issue, but unfortunately the repair will take some time. We have been advised that the scanner will not be functional next week (26/2 - 1/3). Please ensure that you contact all the participants that you have scheduled to scan next week, to let them know that their scan sessions will have to be cancelled and rescheduled for a later date. We apologise for the substantial disruption, unfortunately this is an age-related fault that could not be prevented. We will do everything we can to get the scanner up and running as soon as possible, and we will keep you updated as soon as we know when it will be available again. Best Wishes, Rich -- Dr Richard Aveyard Senior Technical Specialist York NeuroImaging Centre University of York, UK
