In this new paper led by @drcharlotte.bsky.social and myself, we explored phonological representations in monolingual and bilingual neural networks trained on speech recognition: doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

True. And before meeting Yue Sun I had no idea you could have conversations that last for hours about: syllables.

This was an interesting commentary to write on work by Binder et al. regarding impaired acoustic phonetic perception after unilateral left hemisphere stroke. academic.oup.com/brain/advanc...

documentary with a brief appearance of my PI arguing for basic shared values. the past few months here have been highly strange... (example: how to conduct lab meetings when your PI is not allowed to enter the building? 😶‍🌫️) www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5nE...

Please repost to get the word out! @nkgarg.bsky.social and I are excited to present a personalized feed for academics! It shows posts about papers from accounts you’re following bsky.app/profile/pape...

People talk a lot about objects, but what about the softness of a cushion, the greenness of an emerald, or the viscosity of oil? In our work just published @pnas.org, we shed light on how we make sense of the hundreds of materials around us. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

20+ years ago, an idea about cortical lateralization of audition was advanced: asymmetric sampling in time (AST). This extensive review/reevaluation by Chantal Oderbolz, me, and Martin Meyer assesses how the idea has fared. #notallwrong www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

One week left to apply! We'll have so much exciting data for projects: for example, neuropixel data from humans while they listen to sentences courtesy of @shaileejain.bsky.social, Eddie Chang, and his group.

"Key attributes of successful research institutes" journals.plos.org/plosbiology/... – well-written perspective on what makes research institutes successful. having a lot of resources is not sufficient, if there is no positive research culture or good governance structure.

In a new preprint with @kleind.bsky.social, we ask two questions: (Q1) People differ in how they perceive the similarity of stimuli in their environment. How can we model the features underlying similarity judgments in arbitrary domains, while accounting for individual differences? osf.io/agpb5_v1 🧵

When teaching about speech production (which I'm doing today) I always enjoy this Pink Trombone demo Also: If you really really really hate someone show this to their kids dood.al/pinktrombone/

comparing human & animal brain rhythms: it's easy to find examples where human rhythms are more pronounced than anything you can see in animals, even the famous theta-rhythm. 🙂 as evident by the higher spectral peak. 📉 (this is after adjusting for a difference in absolute signal amplitude)

We've launched a jsPsych newsletter 📬

🚀 Excited to share our preprint! 🌍 "Doing conferences differently: decentralising for ecological and social sustainability" highlights #CuttingGardens 2023, the multi-hub conference #CuttingEEG designed to reduce carbon emissions and enhance inclusivity in international events.

Re-advertising a tool we created some time ago for rating, sorting and comparing audio samples in the browser. It can be used as a jspsych plugin for online behavioral experiments. Check the repository: github.com/pwdonh/audio_tokens 🧵

Linguists! We're hiring an Assistant Professor (tenure track) in phonology (secondary specializations welcome) at McGill linguistics, deadline January 13. Come work with us! mcgill.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/McGill...

‼️New paper‼️ (also a major s-ccs #paper, with Judith Schepers & @benediktehinger.bsky.social) Do you have RTs in your 🧠📈-data? Fixation durations? Movements? How do event-durations affect your data? And how to deal with this? 🧵 ⤵ 1 / 5 biorxiv.org/cgi/content/... 🧪 #EEG #fMRI #neuroimage

Excited to share my first #Python package, audioset-strong-download, now on #PyPI! It streamlines downloading Google’s #AudioSet for #audio #ML & #AI research. Check it out and let me know your thoughts! github.com/curlsloth/au...

Another appeal to OPM-, SQUID- MEG researchers. I try to find all people interested in brain magnetism on bluesky. Please respond if you identify as such or tag people who are. It's not a starter pack so there's no limit. Please repost and engage♥️ #psychscisky 🧪 🧠🟦 🤖🧠 🧠📟 🧠📈 bsky.app/profile/did:...
