Useful dataset
by Aidan Horner 16 Aug '23

16 Aug '23

Hi all, A big new data set has just been published that could be useful for many of us, particularly for those interested in hippocampal subfields (who isn't?!): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-023-02449-9 Best wishes, Aidan -- *I work 0.8FTE and my working days are Monday-Wednesday and Friday* ======================================================= Dr Aidan J Horner Associate Professor (Senior Lecturer) in Psychology Department of Psychology University of York York YO10 5DD Mastodon: @aidanhorner@fediscience.org Twitter: @aidanhorner Lab website: http://www.aidanhorner.org/ =======================================================

Fwd: Green Computing Paper
by Beth Jefferies 08 Aug '23

08 Aug '23

Here's an interesting paper from Nick about how we can reduce the carbon footprint of fMRI analysis. https://osf.io/7q5mh/ Let me know what you think :) Cheers Beth ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Nick Souter <nes522(a)york.ac.uk> Date: Tue, 8 Aug 2023 at 17:00 Subject: Green Computing Paper To: FLEXSEM <flexsem-group(a)york.ac.uk> Hi all, Hope you're all doing well :) I've just released the preprint for my first post-doc paper <https://osf.io/7q5mh/>! It's a short perspective piece focusing on 10 steps neuroimagers can take to reduce the carbon footprint of their research computing (preprocessing and analysis). Thought I would share here in case there is anything actionable you could take away from it. In particular, there is stuff about long term data storage and data cleaning which might be relevant to issues with freeing up space on the FLEXSEM drive at YNiC. As part of this, we've developed a tool called fMRIPrepCleanup <https://github.com/NickESouter/fMRIPrepCleanup> specifically designed to comb over fMRIPrep output and delete all the junk files (although take caution using it, as covered in the readme!!).

MEG at YNIC - only 2 weeks remaining (with current system)
by Andre Gouws 31 Jul '23

31 Jul '23

Hi all, We are coming to the end of an era. The "4D / York Instruments / Aveyard Industries" hybrid MEG scanner that was originally commissioned in 2004 will be allowed to warm up (and thus stop working) as we reach the end of our allocated liquid helium supply in 2 weeks time. Firstly, this is a last call for anyone currently using the system to wrap up ASAP. Contact us if you need support. Second, for those interested in using MEG at YNiC in the future, the replacement MEG system (Optical pump magnetometers; no liquid Helium so more sustainable [and affordable]) has been funded through the University's Capital Investment Scheme is being ordered and commissioned as we speak - we hope to have it up and running from Q2 2024. Best wishes, -- André ************************************************************************ André Gouws PhD Lead Technical Specialist York Neuroimaging Centre and York Diagnostic Imaging Departmental Safety Advisor - Dept. of Psychology University of York The Biocentre York Science Park Heslington YO10 5NY

Siemens Scanner next week
by Rebecca Lowndes 06 Jul '23

06 Jul '23

Hi all, As many of you will have noticed, the Siemens scanner was blocked out for use next week for the removal of GE. This work has now been postponed, so we have released the scanner for booking next week. We are not able to provide operator cover, as we have already committed to covering MEG, but if you are able to operate yourselves, please go ahead and book. Apologies for the late notice and any inconvenience caused Thanks Becky -- Rebecca Lowndes Research Technician York Neuroimaging Centre

Hello, Please find details about submitting poster abstracts to this year's MEG-UKI meeting below. You can find more information about the meeting here https://meguk.ac.uk/meg-uki-2023-conference/ Many thanks, Jennifer -- Jennifer Ashton, PhD Senior Research Technician York Neuroimaging Centre Working days: Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Redmond O'Connell <REOCONNE(a)tcd.ie> Date: Fri, Jun 23, 2023 at 2:54 PM Subject: poster abstracts for MEG-UKI Hi all, Just a very quick word. Places are filling up nicely for the MEG-UKI meeting but we haven't had a lot of poster abstract submissions as yet. Please do encourage your labs and colleagues to submit something (not obligatory that there be MEG data involved specifically). We understand that some are not ready to commit to an abstract just yet so please note that *we're happy for people to register now and submit a poster abstract later on* through the conference e-mail address (meguki2023(a)gmail.com) with the deadline for the abstracts being 1st August. All the best Redmond
