“This was surprising. It turns out that when you slow down a word, the auditory cortex doesn't change the time window it is processing. It's like the auditory cortex is integrating across this fixed time scale.” #URochesterResearch

What happens when you listen to speech a different speeds? Does your brain change its processing speed too? It turns out, no @samnorman-haignere.bsky.social & researchers at @zuckermanbrain.bsky.social found the auditory part of the brain keeps clocking in at a fixed time via @natneuro.nature.com

Human auditory cortex integrates information in speech across absolute time (e.g., 200 ms), not phonemes, syllables, words, or any other time-varying speech structure: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

“Thank god for IVF so I could get pregnant” “Actually god made you infertile, science made you pregnant. So it’s thank science actually”

Communicating ideas with other scientists is an essential part of doing science. At conferences, you talk about what you're doing, present at posters/talks, and hear feedback. That process refines & improves yr thoughts. Conferences and seminars are vital for science progress.

In this article, Egan et al. examine multisensory evidence accumulation and show that evidence in two modalities sub-additively co-activate a single, thresholded motor process.

Check out our new multisensory decision study! We tackle a decades-old Q: does faster detection of bimodal targets come from a race or co-activation between modalities? And also a vital, orthogonal Q: is it one decision process or two? A1: co-activation A2: two! Read here: rdcu.be/eASYd
