Hello Everyone,
YNiC Closure
YNiC will be closed between the 19th of December and 9th of January. This will include access to the scanners, user support and open plan. The remote desktop will remain available throughout this time period (users will be notified if any planned maintenance to the remote desktop will stop access).
Changes to Procedures
Participants are no longer required to sign the 'Covid Consent Form' when taking part in experiments at YNiC.
YNiC User Inductions
If you are aware of any new students/staff that will require access to
YNiC and/or an IT account, they must attend a
YNiC user induction. Our next induction will be
Wednesday the 7th of December, at 10:00. Please ask them to contact
support@ynic.york.ac.uk to sign up.
Level 0 operator trainingThe next L0 training session will be held on Wednesday the 14 of December, 13:00-15:00. Please
note that users requesting Level 0 training should be a PhD,
RA/Postdoc, or staff, and should already have a project proposal
submitted to
YNiC. Please email
support@ynic.york.ac.uk if you have any questions or wish to book on to
this session.
Please note that sessions are limited to 4 trainees, which will be
allocated on a first-come first-served basis. Training must be booked at
least a
week before the session date, in order to reserve the scanner booking.
YNiC SeminarThe next
YNiC seminar will be
tomorrow (1st of December) with a talk from
Matthew Westerman from
the University of Huddersfield, with a talk titled "
An investigation into the relationship between the occipital cortex and choice behaviour under ambiguous conditions". Refreshments will be available for those attending in person at YNiC,
