Hi everyone

I've just got a couple of reminders for you today.

Monthly Science Social Seminar:
The next Science Social will be on MEG data processing using Brainstorm, and will take place this Thursday 6th February at 4pm. At the Science Social events we have pizza and drinks, so we look forward to seeing many of you there!

For a list of the upcoming Thursday sessions, please visit https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/events/thursday-sessions.

Open Plan Teaching:
Please be reminded that teaching will be taking place in YNiC open plan at 12-4pm on Friday this week.  During these times, the area will be closed to anybody not involved in the teaching.

Level 0 operator Training:
Our next scheduled Level 0 training session will take place on Wednesday 11th March at 10am-12pm.  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, and include which scanner you wish to be trained on. 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.

All operators must attend an 'Emergency First Aid at Work' one-day training course. Courses should be organised by the project PI with a relevant training provider (e.g. St Johns Ambulance, Red Cross); these providers can also run group training sessions (8 or more people) on-site, so labs may wish to coordinate their operators to attend training on the same day, at a location of your choice.

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 date will be Wednesday 12th February at 10am.  Please ask them to contact support@ynic.york.ac.uk to sign up.


Hope you have a great week!
Kind regards
Lauren
