Dear all

Thank you for the great attendance so far at the YNiC Seminars! 

The second part of the calendar is now shaping up. Dates, speakers and talk titles will be kept up to date here. This link will also be added to the departmental calendar. See below for the (almost) full list. 

Next week please join us for the COGs journal club where I will lead a discussion on the following paper: Baram et al (2026) An abstract relational map emerges in the human medial prefrontal cortex with consolidation. Current Biology. I will give a brief overview of the paper and then open the floor to the discussion.

Best wishes

MaryAnn
