Dear all,
Now that we've come to the end of the 2019-20 Brain Meetings I'd like to take this opportunity to give a big thank you to the Committee - Gabrielle Sheehan, Elisa van der Plas and Justyna Ekert - for all their hard work behind the scenes. This year was particularly unusual of course in needing a rapid adjustment to remote talks and Zoom which they handled with considerable grace and efficiency, ensuring that there was only a brief interruption to normal service.
I'm also glad to say that Gabrielle has offered to continue on to be part of next year's committee, where she will be joined by Joost Haarsma, a new postdoc in Peter Kok's group. Welcome Joost! They will be in touch in due course with details of next year's calendar which kicks off on 18th September.
While there is no Brain Meeting this Friday afternoon, we would encourage everyone instead to attend the virtual UCL Neuroscience Symposium (1pm-430pm), where our very own Peter Kok is one of the keynote speakers, and Max Rollwage and Yunzhe Liu will receive their Jon Driver Prizes. So lots of things for the Centre to celebrate!
Best wishes
Steve
