DESCRIPTION:The Feindel Brain and Mind Seminar Series will advance the visi
 on of Dr. William Feindel (1918–2014)\, Former Director of the Neuro (1972
 –1984)\, to constantly bridge the clinical and research realms. The talks 
 will highlight the latest advances and discoveries in neuropsychology\, co
 gnitive neuroscience\, and neuroimaging.\n\nSpeakers will include scientis
 ts from across The Neuro\, as well as colleagues and collaborators locally
  and from around the world. The series is intended to provide a virtual fo
 rum for scientists and trainees to continue to foster interdisciplinary ex
 changes on the mechanisms\, diagnosis and treatment of brain and cognitive
  disorders.\n\n\nRegistration here\n\nStream via Vimeo here\n\n\nGordon E.

 ract: Since roughly 2014\, we have been working to design and build an MRI
  suitable for use in space. The design that works for the extreme low Size
 \, Weight\, and Power (SWaP) requirements for such a space MRI is a gradie
 nt-free MRI design that uses radio frequency (RF) methods to achieve image
  encoding. The principles of operation of the RF encoding MRI will be revi
 ewed\, and it is planned to show our current prototype at the lecture. In 
 addition\, for use in space\, we are currently developing the MRI for use 
 in northern Saskatchewan communities through student building projects at 
 the Saskatchewan Indian Institute of Technologies (SIIT) and through consu
 ltations in those northern communities. The SIIT work will be described\, 
 and its relationship to other MRI building work now being done in Uganda d
 iscussed.\n\n \n
