Dear All, YNiC has introduced an on-line system for managing the submission and review of applications to the YNiC Research Ethics Committee. To use the system effectively, it is important that applicants please read the document entitled 'Guidance on preparing a submission to the YNiC REC' which can be downloaded from the YNiC web site at: https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/information/application/so-you-want-to-use-the-… That guidance explains what documents constitute an ethics application. It will be important that you submit the correct documents to the on-line system, if your application is to be processed efficiently. With thanks best wishes, Gary Green, Director YNiC Quentin Summerfield, Chair YNiC REC

This Friday, 8th December
by Gary Green 04 Dec '06

04 Dec '06

This Friday we have a group of visitors attending YNiC some time between 11 and noon. The visit is extremely important for us and the University. When the Open Plan area is busy there is an exciting atmosphere and it would be good to communicate that to the visitors even if they are only present for a few minutes. If you happened to be planning to use the YNiC facilities this week then please consider doing so on Friday morning as it would help us enormously. Thank you -- Gary Green York Neuroimaging Centre The Biocentre York Science Park Innovation Way Heslington York YO10 5DG http://www.ynic.york.ac.uk tel. 01904 435349 fax 01904 435356 mobile 07986 778954

MEG benchmarking
by a.morland＠psychology.york.ac.uk 01 Dec '06

01 Dec '06

Dear All, I received three responses (please shout if I have ommitted any) to my enquiry concerning projects (past, present and future) that might assist us all in bench testing MEG analysis. The project details are described below and I am hopeful that each of them will inform us on how best to use the MEG tools that have been developed at YNiC. The projects are also at different stages of development and this is likely to allow at least some work to be done in series rather than us spread ourselves too thinly across three parallel projects. I plan to convene some meetings with each project team and YNiC staff to establish how to move forward on each project. These meetings will take the same form as the brain storming sessions that we are now running for project teams. The first of these was run recently and by all accounts was a successful and enjoyable activity. If you could let me know when (usually a Wednesday afternoon from 4pm) you are available to meet, that would be very helpful. Many thanks for responding. Tony Project: P1010 Title: Seeing the neural basis of the left hemisphere advantage for visual word recognition. Investigators: Ellis and Barca. SLO: Simpson Synopsis: MEG study with good data acquired from at least 11 participants. Left vs right visual field comparison for silent reading of words, scrambled words. Status: Data acquired and partially analysed. Project: P1039 Title: Investigating the magnitude and distance effects in number comparison with MEG. Investigators: Goebel. SLO: Simpson Synopsis: Aim to acquire data from circa 16 participants during number comparisons (and control trials). Status: Acquiring, but ethics and science approval. Project: P1051 Title: Comparing fMRI and MEG; object category selectivity in the visual cortex. Investigators: Lee, Young, Andrews & Johnson. SLO: Johnson Synopsis: 16 participants viewing faces and places. Status: Data not yet acquired, ethics and science applied for.
