MRI scanning procedures
by a.morland＠psychology.york.ac.uk 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Dear All, Unfortunately my previous messages concerning MRI scanning appear not to have had the desired effect. Many investigators are still not fully prepared for their scan sessions and are expecting far too much from Chris, our new radiographer. This is putting her in an unfair position. The attached form will therefore have to be completed by investigators for all MRI projects. No form = No Scan! An example of a completed form is also attached for your reference. Chris has started to compile a file of the forms so that she will be able to set up scans appropriately for each project. If any student investigators you supervise are not reached by this message, please liaise with them so that forms are submitted ahead of any scan sessions they intend to book. Tony

TMS Equipment
by Andy Ellis 29 May '07

29 May '07

Dear All The Department has been awarded £12,450 from the University's Strategic Equipment Fund for the purchase of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) equipment. This is first and foremost a contribution towards the start-up needs of Silke Goebel and Beth Jefferies, but once the equipment is purchased and installed in YNiC later this year, it will be available to others when Silke and Beth are not using it.

GARY told me to post this to YNiC users, as it is not documented anywhere. Just following orders... (And some users do operate for themselves!!!)

Supine projector in MEG
by lmb503＠york.ac.uk 23 May '07

23 May '07

Dear all Some time-saving tips for when using the supine projector screen in MEG.... Orientation needs to be changed using projector handset: Menu - Main - Mirror- H&V invert Image can be moved up/down using projector handset 'Lens shift' buttons. Image also needs to be much smaller than for standard projector, as it gets 'amplified' by the greater distance. Lisa Brindley

Thursday seminar
by Sam Johnson 22 May '07

22 May '07

Hello all, Well after a rather disappointing turn out last week I can only apologise again for the lack of alcohol following Michael's talk and reassure everyone that normal service will be resumed, the wine is ready and waiting. Even better though is the prospect of a project proposal from Jakke Tamminen, and a brainstorm feedback from Laura Lee. Jakke will be talking about his project "Neural correlates of novel word learning". Laura will talk about "Outcomes of Brainstorming. Comparing fMRI & MEG; category-selectivity in the visual cortex". Laura's asked me to emphasise that this won't be the same as her departmental talk, she'll be talking much more about techniques and analysis rather than results, discussing filtering, block design in MEG and virtual electrodes, so there's sure to be something for everyone. Hope to see you all on Thursday, Thanks, Sam

Thursday evening
by Sam Johnson 16 May '07

16 May '07

Hello all, Just a reminder that tomorrow evening the Thursday evening session at YNiC will consist of Garreth giving a project presentation for his next MEG study, looking at amplitude modulation, and Angel talking about the usefulness of noise reduction for different data sets. We've got the next couple of weeks' sessions booked, but this is now your chance to volunteer to 'run' a session. You can present work, ideas, problems, or opt for a more traditional journal club approach. If we don't have any volunteers stepping forward, we'll be moving to the "who hasn't stepped back" method instead :) Hope to see you tomorrow, Sam
