Dear ,
I hope you're well! I'm reaching out as a volunteer with Women in Neuroscience UK (WiNUK) to ask if you'd be willing to share the announcement below with the York Neuroimaging Centre mailing list.
WiNUK is currently accepting nominations for our 2025 Awards, which celebrate the achievements of female-identifying neuroscientists and allies across the UK. We’d love your help in spreading the word and encouraging nominations from your community.
It would be great if you could share the message below to your social media and mailing lists. Thank you so much for your support!
’ve also attached a short promotional toolkit in Google Doc format, we’d be grateful if you could use it for your social media or internal bulletins.
Thank you,
