Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce that the MNN will continue to present biomedical
neuroscience research presentations within the Clinical Neuroscience Rounds
program. These talks will be held on the last Friday of every month,
starting in October. The talks will be from 9-10 am. Currently, the plan is
to present remotely, giving access to all spanning several campuses.
Ultimately, the mode of delivery will be determined by the Rounds
organizers. Whether remote, in-person or hybrid, we will provide more
information as we receive it.

Dear Colleagues,
We are happy to announce the first seminar in Biological Sciences of the
2022/23 year will be Friday, Sept. 16th at 3pm in Buller 207. This week's
speaker is Dr. Ken Lukowiak from the University of Calgary who will be
presenting on "The many forms of memory in Lymnaea". Dr. Lukowiak's research
focuses on the causal neuronal mechanisms of learning, memory formation and
forgetting. They are interested in how stress alters memory formation;
especially ecologically relevant stressors such as predator detection and
crowding. More information on Dr. Lukowiak's research can be found here

speaker on Friday, please contact Mark Fry to arrange a time. I hope we will
have a strong turn out to our first seminar of the year.

Dear MNN members,
We are happy to announce that we have created an MNN slack channel, which
can be joined via this
<https://join.slack.com/t/manitobaneuro-uih1077/shared_invite/zt-1fuhvsvc1-Z
bo4CMWOuy6_Ld4IZdFWNQ> invitation link. Slack is a free messaging app for
business that connects people to the information they need. By bringing
people together to work as one unified team, Slack transforms how
organizations communicate. The invitation is open to all MNN members,
including faculty, staff and students. While participation is entirely
optional, we encourage all MNN members and their lab colleagues to join.
We want this platform to help build bridges between Manitoban
neuroscientists. Through slack, you can quickly ask your colleagues
questions, such as if other labs have a temporary replacement for a reagent
you ran out of or if others have protocols they might be willing to share.
It also allows graduate students across campuses to connect more informally.
Feel free to also share announcements with others, like when your lab has a
new paper, common equipment is not working or if there is an exciting
seminar coming up.
Thank you for your time, and if you have any suggestions, feedback, or ideas
for additional sub-channels, please let us know.
Sincerely,
Robert Beattie
