[BIC-announce] [REMINDER] BIC Lecture Series (Mon-Dec-02, 1:00 pm, de Grandpré Communications Centre; "fMRI Analysis of Evoked Responses" -- Dr. Jorge Armony)

Sun Dec 1 20:28:00 EST 2013

*BIC Lecture Series*

The BIC Lecture
Series<http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/Seminars/BICLectureSeries>
features
informal lectures on brain imaging presented at the McConnell Brain Imaging
Centre <http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/Main/HomePage> (*BIC*) by experts in
the field.  These lectures are open to all.  This semester, the BIC Lecture
Series is being held in conjunction with *Human Brain Imaging*
(NEUR-570<http://www.mcgill.ca/ipn/courses#570>),
an introductory course on modern brain imaging.

Please join us for our next BIC Lecture of the season, which will be held
in The Neuro's de Grandpré Communications
Centre<http://neuromedia.mcgill.ca/mnibooking/facdirections/dgccdir.htm>
 (3801
University Street, Montreal, QC, H3A 2B4) on *Monday, December the 2nd,
starting at 1:00 pm**.  *

*At that time, **Dr. Jorge Armony
<http://www.douglas.qc.ca/researcher/jorge-armony>** will be providing an
introduction to fMRI analysis of evoked responses.*

*Please note that, as you can see below (in red), Dr. Rick Hoge will be
presenting a related lecture (“Exploring the role of neurovascular and
metabolic physiology in cognitive decline using new quantitative fMRI
methods”) in the same room on that morning starting at 9:00 am.*

Cheers!
Aki
