-====== CUBIC Neuroscience Series (CNS) ======
+====== Monthly neuroscience meetings ======
-CUBIC organises a monthly meeting (the newly titled CUBIC Neuroscience Series) on topics of general interest to MRI community. This includes:
-  * **Work-in-progress (WIP) meetings** (highly recommended for staff running new studies)
-  * **Methods Oriented Talks (MOT)** by internal or external speakers.
-  * **Data Clinics (Clinic)** that are available to all researchers (neuroimaging, behavioural, modelling etc.). The clinics are intended to be informal meetings to discuss issues with experimental design, data collection and analysis, or interpretation.
-  * **Publication round-ups (PRU)** - to showcase some of the latest studies to come out from cognitive neuroscientists at RHUL
-  * **Journal club (JC)** - CUBIC members host a paper of interest to the broader group
-  * **General meeting (GM)** - CUBIC members discuss wider issues around the the centre (e.g., policies, research strategy, grant writing)
-These are held at Royal Holloway and are open to all users. Please contact <carl.hodgetts@rhul.ac.uk> to add your name to the mailing list to receive information about upcoming meetings.

+Starting on Wednesday 15th October 2025 (JBB105, 3-4pm), we will hold the first of our revamped monthly neuroscience meetings, which we are provisionally calling “Neuro Natter” (feedback welcome!). These meetings will be informal and community-focused, providing a space for staff to discuss centre-specific matters but also ongoing challenges in their work (e.g., with preprocessing/analysis), ideas for new projects and grants, recent developments in the field, etc. We hope that the new format will encourage staff to share knowledge and build connections, while also creating a welcoming environment for those who have an interest in neuroscience methods (MRI, EEG, TMS) but might not necessarily know where to start.
+Please contact <rikki.lissaman@rhul.ac.uk> to add your name to the mailing list to receive information about upcoming meetings, which (depending on feedback) we plan to hold every third Wednesday of the month.
