Friday December 17, 2010
Apotex Bldg 071 Alumni Theatre
9 - 10 am
NOTE: Attendance by clinical neuroscience faculty and trainees has been very good but the basic neuroscientists have not yet responded in large numbers. Please support this unique opportunity to attend a seminar series dedicated to learning about what fellow Manitoba neuroscientists are doing.
Thank you! Seminar announcement and futute schedule attached.

The Winnipeg Chapter Society for Neuroscience <http://sfn-manitoba.ca/> is pleased to announce the next Manitoba Neuroscience Network Seminar Series.
As mentioned previously, eight seminars are scheduled, held the last Friday of each month, October thru May, during the second hour of Clinical Neuroscience Rounds.
The Manitoba Neuroscience Network represents neuroscientists from several campuses, seminars will therefore be distributed among the Bannatyne, St. Boniface and Fort Garry campuses, although most will be at Bannatyne. The spirit of our effort is to try to bring people together once a month. Therefore, we encourage you to travel to the site of each seminar. However, seminars at St. Boniface and Fort Garry will be video-linked to Bannatyne for those who cannot travel.
Please find attached the seminar schedule for 2010/2011. We will circulate separate notices for each event as we approach each one.
The second speaker is Dr. Jonathan Marotta - Friday, November 26, 2010 at 9am, Theatre C, Bannatyne Campus <http://myuminfo.umanitoba.ca/index.asp?sec=900&too=200&dat=11/26/2010&sta=0…> . Please see the second attachment and post in your area to advertise.
We would like to encourage all basic neuroscientists to attend this event.
Thanks for your support.

My name is Brea Chouinard and I am currently a PhD student at the University of Alberta (U of A). I am interested in neuroplasticity and the implications for speech and language therapies. Specifically, for my doctoral research I am going to be investigating a computer program developed around the principles of neuroplasticity and its effects on the language of typically aging adults and people with aphasia. A large part of this project entails functional and structural imaging.
I will be collaborating with a speech and language therapist in Winnipeg and ideally, we would like all participants to undergo the same structural and neuroimaging assessment protocols. As such, I would like to know how to go about liaising with Magnetic Resonance Imaging at St. Boniface Hospital.
My supervisor re: neuroimaging here at the U of A is Dr. Jacqueline Cummine (PhD Cognitive Neuroscience). We would like to begin the process of affiliating with your institution so that we can use your 1.5 Tesla research MRI for our data gathering.
Would you please let me know of how to begin these procedures? If I need to be redirected or if there is someone more appropriate to contact with this request, that information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your time.
