Dear colleagues

In addition to the celebration of TMS coming to York (Thursday at 4pm) we also have a visitor on Wednesday who has expressed his interest in meeting users and discussing the science at YNiC.

Lord Sainsbury who officially opened the Centre in 2005, will be visiting from 1:45pm to 2:45. He specifically asked to be shown around YNiC to hear about progress since his last visit. Lord Sainsbury studied Psychology at Cambridge and is known to retain a personal interest in the development of our understanding of cognition.

He will be visiting MEG where we will be demonstrating its use in studying verbal & non-verbal memory, MRI where he will be shown recent work on use of fMRI in vision sciences and then he will be taken into the open plan to meet users.

If you are free and would like to meet our visitor then please do come along to YNiC on Wednesday from 1:30pm onwards.

Lord Sainsbury will be accompanied by the VC and the pro-VC for research

thanks

Gary
