by Tom Hartley 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

Greetings fellow cognoscenti! This is a reminder that next week (Friday 22rd Mar, 11.30am, YNiC) we have our next "Cogs" meeting. Alex Pike will be leading the session on "Can we use multimodal MRI and clinical data to predict treatment response in major depressive disorder? <https://uniofyork.padlet.org/tomhartley/cogs-7svj1mgvsc2jq2yp/wish/29186935…>". She'll discuss a recent paper that suggests the answer may be yes <https://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/doi/10.1176/appi.ajp.20230206>, in the context of a recent study indicating that there are difficulties with the approach <https://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/doi/10.1176/appi.ajp.20230206>. This session may be of interest to colleagues beyond the YNiC mailing list, so feel free to forward it to those you think might like to come along. Cogs meetings are a format designed to generate informal and lively discussion about topics that excite and inspire us. It's open to undergrads, academics, masters students, postdocs, research staff, PhD students, YNiC staff and basically anyone with an interest in cognitive neuroscience at the University of York. If you'd like to present a session, if you have ideas for topics that would be good to hear about , or if you want to find out what others are suggesting please take a look at the discussion board, or email us. *discussion board: * *https://cogs.ynic.york.ac.uk/ <https://cogs.ynic.york.ac.uk/>* *email the organizers (Tom Hartley, Beth Jefferies) by email at cogs(a)ynic.york.ac.uk <cogs(a)ynic.york.ac.uk>*.

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/ =====================================================================
