Dear Neuroscientists, The success of MNN outreach and networking activities depends on dedicated volunteers for each event. We are currently looking for a faculty volunteer to chair the 2017 annual MNN scientific meeting. Most logistical meeting planning can be handled by others, leaving the chair to focus on developing a rich program for faculty, trainees and professions, as he or she sees fit. If you are interested in being the 2017 meeting chair, please reply to this email. As always, thank you for supporting the Manitoba Neuroscience Network. Chris Anderson MNN President ****************************************** <http://www.manitobaneuroscience.ca/> <https://www.facebook.com/manitobaneuroscience/?fref=ts> <https://www.instagram.com/manitobaneuroscience/> <https://twitter.com/manitobaneuro>

I still have the following dates available and I am hoping you can help me fill these out quickly. Oct 28, Feb 24,. Regards Eftekhar Dear Neuroscientists, Over the last few years, the Manitoba Neuroscience Network and their Clinicians counterparts have held monthly joint meetings and the basic scientists have showcased the basic science for their clinician colleagues. This has been eagerly received by the clinicians and has provided an opportunity for the basic scientists to discuss their research with a clinical audience. This year, I am writing cordially to you all to see if you may want to share your science with the rest of us. These monthly talks are held last Friday of the month (9:00-10:00am) in Rm PX236/238, Psych Health Bldg., Bannatyne Campus. ****************************************** <http://www.manitobaneuroscience.ca/> cid:image003.jpg@01D159B3.9F0B9710 <https://www.facebook.com/manitobaneuroscience/?fref=ts> <https://www.instagram.com/manitobaneuroscience/> <https://twitter.com/manitobaneuro>

cid:image001.jpg@01D158FE.B69B8D00 /On behalf of Eftekhar Eftekharpour Dear Colleagues, I am writing to request nomination for our 2016-2017 MNN invited speaker series. Over the last few years, the MNN has actively invited more than 30 national and international distinguished speakers to come to Winnipeg and interact with our scientific community. This has been achieved through a close interaction between the MNN, Kleysen Neuroscience group and the Saint Boniface Hospital. This has been a real opportunity for our Neuroscientists to interact with the speakers and establish successful collaborative projects. Many of these speakers visited our city for the first time and were quite impressed with the quality, quantity and the depth of neuroscience research at U of M. I am writing to request your help in inviting world class scientists for this year. I would like to extent this invitation to all aspects of Neuroscience research and therefore would need your input. Please send me name, email, and a line or two for the impact they have had in your field of interest. Looking forward to your emails. Regards Eftekhar (eftekhar.eftekharpour(a)umanitoba.ca) ****************************************** <http://www.manitobaneuroscience.ca/> cid:image003.jpg@01D159B3.9F0B9710 <https://www.facebook.com/manitobaneuroscience/?fref=ts> <https://www.instagram.com/manitobaneuroscience/> <https://twitter.com/manitobaneuro> Kae Normandeau Administrative Manager, Neuroscience Research Program Kleysen Institute for Advanced Medicine T: 204.318.2569 E: kae.normandeau(a)umanitoba.ca

Dear students, A new course is running this September 2016. Registration opens on Wednesday, July 20, 2016 for all Fall Term graduate courses. This course should be available to register via Aurora Student by the next two weeks. Thanks. Jen University of Manitoba Graduate Course Announcement (2016-2017) Human Brain Imaging Methods (IMED 7004) This is a 1.5 credit hour course held on the Bannatyne Campus (Sep. 8, 2016 - Oct. 27, 2016). It will be of particular interest to graduate students whose research is in neuroscience. This course will provide an overview of the in vivo brain imaging methods and how imaging data are analysed (e.g., MRI, PET, EEG). Students will have opportunity to perform hands-on practice in computer labs with sample data. The course has 2 components: 1. Lectures that will provide a systematic survey of different brain imaging modalities, and 2. Computer Laboratory sessions in which students will perform computer analysis using real brain imaging data.
