Your lab notebook is one of the most important and precious objects you, as a scientist, will ever have. This session explore how keeping an exemplary laboratory notebook is crucial to good scientific practice in lab research. The course will consist of a short talk, a chance to assess some examples of good and bad practice, with plenty of time for questions and discussion. You might like to bring along your own lab notebook for feedback. (Please note that issues relating to protection of Intellectual Property Rights will not be covered in this session)

Would you like to take a moment to relax? Then this is the event for you.

This course will benefit anyone in a work environment and is designed to provide candidates with an understanding of health and safety requirements placed on employers and employees. If you require training before the next planned course please contact the course leader as it may be possible to arrange some training earlier if there is enough demand. There will be a nominal fee (20 ukp) for certification with the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health if you are a member of the University. If the University is not your employer, please contact the course leader for details and fee. Please note candidates must bring their University Card or another form of photo ID with them on the day in order to be able to attend the course.

Much of the session comprises a case study based on a medium sized University department. Delegates will examine University regulations and procedures and decide the actions for various scenarios and correct anomalies for selected sources of funds.

Understanding the brain is widely cited as being the most difficult task facing us today. Ultimately we want the combined knowledge from various approaches to provide us with insight into how nervous systems generate behaviours, and how we can intervene when it goes wrong. More than ever, critical analysis needs to be applied to neuroscience data. This critical ability is an essential component of any scientific training, yet it is often lost during the (relatively short) course of a PhD, where the focus is on generating data. Journal clubs, guest lectures and dicussions will provide a basis for developing critical skills in neuroscience.
