Hi All, *For everyone:* we've updated some of the YNIC documents, so please make sure you use: - Version 10 of the REC application form, - Version 10 of the Participant Information Sheet, - Version 4 of the YNIC Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA). We'll get all these forms on the website as soon as possible, but they're attached here as I know some of you are waiting for them. *For MEG users:* we now have a separate questionnaire for MEG, so you will use the MEG questionnaire for MEG, the existing one for fMRI and both if your participant is having MEG and fMRI. We also now have DPIA approval for the LIDAR system, which involves acquiring and storing images of the participant's face. Please note that researchers will have access to the transformation matrix generated with these images, but only YNIC staff will have access to the images themselves. Please do not attempt to copy or keep these images! The procedures are explained in the new DPIA (version 4, attached). If you wish to deviate from these procedures, you will need to check whether you'll need to get your own DPIA approval. Any questions, please let me know. Best wishes, Fiona

MEG-UKI meeting 28-31st October, registration open

by Richard Aveyard

Hi All, This would be a great conference for anyone anticipating using our new OPM-MEG system, see details below. Cheers, Rich MEG-UKI provides a platform for researchers exploring hardware development, analysis methods, cognitive neuroscience and clinical translation to come together and discuss their research into Magnetoencephalography. The Centre for Human Brain Health at the University of Birmingham is hosting a series of meetings covering a broad range of topics in MEG research. We hope that hosting these in close proximity will provide opportunity for broad interdisciplinary conversations as well as saving on participant time, travel expenses and logistics. https://uobevents.eventsair.com/meguki/ -- Dr Richard Aveyard Senior Technical Specialist York NeuroImaging Centre University of York, UK

Important - participant confidentiality reminder

by Andre Gouws

NOBODY should discuss, either between themselves or with the participant scanned, anything they think they may or may not have seen on that participant's MRI scan. This applies while in the scan room while someone is being scanned, or after when looking at their data. Anyone who sees something on a scan can bring any concerns to any member of YNiC staff. This should be done DISCRETELY (i.e. behind a closed door) as soon as possible after their scan session - do not call someone to the scan room or stand in open plan and say "I saw something weird in this person's brain". Discussing potentially sensitive details about someone's MRI scan could constitute a breach of confidentiality and there could be very serious consequences - Just don't do it. Please rest assured that we have processes in place to have participants' scans reviewed by medical professionals if required. And we implement those processes as discretely as we can. Please help us do that. Sincerely, -- 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*
