Piers and I would be willing to attempt to lead one or two sessions
on virtual electrode analysis in MEG. Points for discussion could
include:
1. Where you can stick your virtual electrodes. How to position your
VEs to best effect.
2. What kinds of information you can get out of VEs - analyses in the
frequency and amplitude domains.
3. What kinds of statistical analyses would it be good to be able to do?
These might best be done after the MEG masterclass on 7 Feb.
Any interest?
Andy

Dear Users,
YNiC would like to invite you to the YNiC Analysis Support Colloquia.
These sessions will take place on Wednesday evenings from 4pm to 5pm in
Room B020, Psychology. This new session is designed to get Users to
present and discuss contemporary analysis problems. They are open to all
Users, and will be attended by as many YNiC staff as are available.
The format will be:
* A User will send a message to ynic-users(a)ynic.york.ac.uk to say
that they would like to have a YNiC ASC on a set date, and on a set subject.
* Once a User has nominated a particular date, they are effectively
the chair for that session. Before the session, the chair will be
expected to forward an agenda to the User list to let YNiC staff, and
Users, know what the topic of the session will be, and who will present
what.
* The chair will be expected to make a short presentation on an
analysis problem at their YNiC ASC, and then lead the subsequent discussion.
* If another User would like to present at a colloquia that is
already being chaired, it will be up to the User to contact the chair in
advance to see if their data / problem is appropriate for the session.
Therefore, in some colloqiua there may be more than one example of the
problem presented.
* The chair for the session may be asked to add to the YNiC
documentation after their session if new insights into analyses have
been gleaned.
Those of you who have had a brainstorm will recognise aspects of the
format. The new YNiC ASC will hopefully open these brainstorms up so
that all Users can benefit from them. Hence, analysis insights that
emerge form these colloquia will be open to the whole User community.
These colloquia will also replace interpretation support that may
previously have been available via your SLO. This has been decided to
ensure that all projects have the potential for the same support, and
also that all projects will essentially benefit from input from all YNiC
staff and Users, rather than just one individual. We hope that it will
be a self-supporting enterprise for the whole User community. (N.B. Note
that technical support related to your analysis will still be available
from your SLO.)
So, all that is left to do is email ynic-users(a)ynic.york.ac.uk and
volunteer for a YNiC ASC, making sure to state the date and subject.
Best Wishes,
Michael
P.S. We appreciate that there may be occasions when there is a clash
with Board of Studies meetings however, as there is only 2 per term,
this will only be problem 6 times a year. On these occasions Users can
suggest to the chair of the YNiC ASC that they might move their date to
another day. Alternatively, there may be very specific or technical
problems that might be appropriate for a YNiC ASC that clashes with a
Board of Studies meeting.

Quite an interesting paper has just appeared in Perspectives on
Psychological Science 2,(4), Dec 2007 - A trio of concerns by Jerome
Kagan. Includes some interesting observations on the differences
between MEG and MRI.
Enjoy.

On a related note, grad students and post-docs can apply for a $750
travel bursary. It's not much money (especially with the ever-declining
value of the USD) but better than paying the entire £760 airfare yourself!
Deadline is April '08. See link below:
