YNiC - Message of the week

Hello All, This week's seminar will be a project presentation by Anika Smith. Please come to see what she plans to do at YNiC. - 16:15 Thursday the 16th @ YNiC. News: * NEW: We have created a new page with information and content from our previous seminars in case you missed them: https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/SeminarContent. * Additional response boxes delivered: We have acquired a further set of response boxes for our FORP response devices MRI and MEG) that allow up to four buttons in each hand simultaneously (8 response options) - see http://www.scienceplus.com/curdes-forp-8-button-boxes * MEG repair work continues A note about booking etiquette: One of the most efficient ways to use the scanners is to book a number of participants back-to-back in consecutive slots on the scanner. It is not acceptable practice to leave small, non-booked slots between these participants. An example would be if you were scanning 3 subjects for 45 minutes each, but leaving the scanner non-booked between them for 15 minutes so you can have a coffee break, or because that corresponds better with your PEEBS slots. Gaps like this will be noted and PIs will be charged for lost time. The scanners are very busy and we must do our best to optimize access to the facilities in a fair and financially viable way. If you 're having problems with bookings or have any suggestions please fee free to contact us. Have a good week and hope to see you on Thursday. Andre' pp Tony Morland -- Antony Morland, PhD.
