Second-year graduate student, Lynda Lin, has been accepted to the Training Course in fMRI at the University of Michigan. The University will offer a 2-week intensive course that will train attendees on the motivation for using fMRI, the physics that underlies the technique, the design of experiments, the acquisition of data, the analysis of those data, and the interpretation of brain activations that result. Congratulations, Lynda!
