Dear all,
The team at YNiC are putting together a fantastic series of events this Semester.
Each week from week 1 we will be hosting a variety of internal and external speakers in a number of formats at the York Neuroimaging centre,* 1-2pm on Tuesdays. *Note talks will start at about 1.10 to give people enough time to get from lunch or previous lectures.
We welcome faculty, ECR and MSc to all events.
The program for the next four weeks is as follows:
Week 1 - 29/10: Catherine Preston will present her latest work in Neuroscience of Women’s Health in the inaugural September resit seminar. Week 2 - 06/10: Daniel Berry will deliver a New Project Pitch on Effort Based Decision Making with fMRI. Week 3 - 13/10: Nicole Levermore will present her Work In Progress on Attention, Alpha, ADHD - and Tetris. Week 4- 20/10: I will lead a Cognitive Neuroscience Discussion Group (COGs) on an exciting new general interest paper (TBA).
As the new YNiC engagement coordinator my goal is to identify ways of improving the experience of researchers using YNiC. To that end I hope the ongoing programme of weekly events will build [1] community within and across research experience, [2] increase both internal and external collaboration and [3] facilitate peer and professional user support from conception to publication.
Further, to encourage community building, I am branding Tuesdays "*Tues YNiC*" days. Please arrive early, stay late or even work all day at YNiC!
