Are high perceptual precision demands always necessary for training to drive auditory neural plasticity? 🧠 🔊🎙️ Find out more in this cool study with voice actors doi.org/10.1016/j.co... by @mkachlicka.bsky.social & @adamtierney.bsky.social @birkbeckpsychology.bsky.social #auditory #neuroscience 🧵1/6

Our brains have an internal GPS that guides us through physical space. But does it do more than that? A recent preprint from the lab shows that the brain’s navigation system also maps sound 🧠 🌎 🔉 Read more here: doi.org/10.1101/2025... #auditory #neuroscience @birkbeckpsychology.bsky.social 🧵1/4

New preprint by @mkachlicka.bsky.social et al.! Perceptual strategies set by one's first language can make learning a second language difficult. Can short-term training change participants' strategies, potentially facilitating second language learning? The answer is sort of! osf.io/preprints/ps...

Our "Many Voices" 75-author collaboration led by Yuto Ozaki finding global regularities in music-speech relationships is now out on the cover of Science Advances: science.org/doi/10.1126/... Full video of 18 coauthors singing/speaking in our own languages at youtu.be/a4eNNrdcfDM

Hi new followers! Here are a few recent papers from the lab: @mkachlicka.bsky.social shows that Illusory transformation of speech into song is unaffected by language background, suggesting cross-cultural similarity in cues used to distinguish speech and music: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
