A postdoctoral position is available in the lab of Adam Aron
(www.aronlab.org <http://www.aronlab.org>).
The candidate should be interested in fronto-basal-ganglia circuits for
response control in humans. The candidate should have a PhD in any of

attentional/cognitive control. The candidate MUST have good skills in
functional imaging and/or electrophysiology, and be interested in
behavioral/cognitive task development.
The lab has excellent local and collaborative research resources,

Hi all,
I will be coming round ynic this Monday (14.10.13) between 9 am and 10:30
am, and Tuesday (15.10.13) between 2 pm and 3 pm to collect menu choices
(attached) and money for the Christmas party. Guests and partners are very
welcome (one guest per person) should you wish to bring them.
*Dietary Requirements*
The chef at The Churchill says he can cater for any dietary requirement. We
will take a preference for food choices and also write by each option the
particular dietary requirement (e.g. gluten-free).
Hopefully the chef will be able to make that dish with the specific dietary
requirement, but if not, then I'm sure he will make a tasty alternative.
If you are unable to be there at these times but would like to come to the
party, it would be great if you could leave your choices with somebody else
able to be there, or alternatively arrange a time to come see me in the
psychology department (or arrange a time with Rich Harris who is also
responsible for collecting money from ynic staff).
For reference, Tuesday is the deadline for payment.
Hope to see you all there!
Cheers,
Catta
Hi all,
The next M/EEG group meeting will take place in a week's time - on *Thursday
17th October* at *12:00* in the *Venables room*. (Note the change of time
to usual due to the new timetabling)
Becky Gilbert will be giving a talk entitled 'EEG Correlates of Subvocal
Rehearsal in Auditory-Verbal Short-Term Memory'.
Hope to see lots of you who do EEG and/or MEG there!
If you're not on the ynic mailing list and want to make sure you continue
to receive these emails in the future, please follow this link and enter

Dear all,
The annual Christmas party will be held on *Thursday 5th December* at *The
Churchill* <http://www.churchillhotel.com/> (65 Bootham, York), from 7pm.
The cost is *£23* and includes a free drink before the three-course meal.
The meal was really tasty last year and the menu for this year looks as
though it will be of the same high standard! Guests, including partners,
are welcome.
As always, the money is due in advance. We'll be coming around offices to
make collections on Monday 14th and Tuesday 15th October, so make sure you
have some cash ready for us. Alternatively, you could pop by and see Huarda
<huarda.valdes-laribi(a)york.ac.uk>in C104, or Emma <eh776(a)york.ac.uk>or Adele
<ag561(a)york.ac.uk>in B001b. We've already had several sign-ups! *The final
deadline for payments is Tuesday 15th October.*
A flyer and the menu for this year are attached. We'll be asking for your
menu choices when we collect the money.
We're looking forward to seeing even more people this year, as it's a great
opportunity to get to know faculty, staff, postdocs, RAs and PhD students
in an informal environment! If we get enough people to attend, then we
might be able to get our own private room at the venue!
Best wishes,
The ECR Forum
