Hi everyone
This week we have a few notices to communicate with you.
*Siemens Bed Repair:*
We are currently experiencing a mechanical fault with the Siemens table.
Engineers are due to attend Tuesday AM to resolve the issue. Users
affected by this fault today and tomorrow have already been contacted, and
we will keep YNiC-users updated via this mailing list.
*Project Presentation - Thursday 4pm:*
This week we have a project presentation from Martin Scott on *Thursday at
4pm* in YNiC open plan, titled: "Effects of 670nm photobiomodulation on
mitochondrial function in the human brain". Talks are followed by
refreshments.
*Safety Screening Form:*
Further to Tony's announcement last week, we would like to remind all
operators (and users who may be involved in screening participants) that
the following text now appears on YNiC safety forms:
"It is essential that all questions on this sheet are answered truthfully.
This information is essential in order to ensure your safety and will be
kept completely confidential. If you do not want to answer any question(s)
on this form you are free to withdraw from this scanning session without
any prejudice."
Please read this text to potential participants *before* you ask the
questions on the form, some of which can be personal in nature and which
some individuals may not wish to answer. Copies of the safety forms can be
found on the YNiC website (
https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/forms), please
familiarise yourself with all text on these forms before your next scanning
session.
*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 30th October at 2pm. Please ask them to
contact support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk to sign up.
Hope you have a great week!
Cheers
Lauren
