Working with @ahoejlund is wonderful. If you want to do a PhD and can live with me, then read this:

The RETINA and Parkinson's? Great new paper. Electrophysiological delays, decreased amplitude electroretinography; retinal nerve fibre layer and macular thinning, optical coherence measured structural changes. Retinal dopaminergic neurons (amacrine cells).

We are really looking forward to our coming Tuesday seminar 2nd May, where we have @AIAS_dk fellow @Barbarabarbaber presenting her work on working memory and functional connectivity patterns.
All welcome, online or in-person.

All NeuroImage and NeuroImage:Reports editors have resigned over the high publication fee, and are starting a new non-profit journal
imaging-neuroscience.org
This comes with great regret, and a huge amount of thought and discussion- please read announcement to get more details.
My awesome PhD student @AlberteSeeberg is running a really cool online study on #groove perception in #cochlearimplant users - and she needs more CI-users. It only takes approx. 15 min and it mainly requires listening to a bunch of cool rhythms:

Are you a normal-hearing listener and curious about the study, then here's the link for NH participants:

So happy to share our new paper in @NatureHumBehav! Why do we change how we speak when interacting with infants?. Does IDS in British English sound similar to IDS in Korean or Danish? Do the acoustics of IDS change as the child develops more sophisticated language knowledge?
This meta-analysis by Cox et al. examines different features of infant-directed speech (IDS) across languages and infant ages. Results suggest cross-linguistic tendencies and that caregivers adjust the properties of IDS to suit infants’ changing needs.

Adults across the globe seem to adjust their speech to suit the changing needs of infants (with some interesting cross-linguistic variation). Study led by @ChrisMMCox, with @chbergma @aroepstorff and others. Check the paper here the thread: xitter.cf/ChrisMMCox/status/1497…

Yet another fascinating thread+talk by the awesome @fusaroli. This time on vocal markers of neuropsychiatric disorders (and the limits of ML approaches to tackling this). Amazing work! Could responses to the 1 min verbal fluency task potentially be used in this context?
Today I have given a talk at the PRAAT group (@IrisSommer4 @SBrederoo) on (some of) the limits of machine learning approaches to vocal markers of neuropsychiatric conditions (identifying them using voice data only). A thread (and video at the end): 1/
Thx heaps for sharing this awesome & enlightening thread+talk on using informed priors based on prev work @fusaroli! Particularly enjoyed the point about comparing different informed/skeptical priors as “a robustness analysis of our findings” 🙌
Kapow!

Replying to @interact_minds @AarhusUni_int
Seed Funding is a great chance to kick off a new project, get some pilot data, or work with some new collaborators (or all of these).
A month to write a brief proposal👍
@AIAS_dk @Aarhus_BSS @CFIN_AU @CIBP_AU @cfa_res_pol Please help us spread the word👌
Not-to-miss opportunity! Apply, apply, apply. Deadline is Feb 1.
If you are a nice person, please apply for this postdoc in cognitive neuroimaging of language in Aarhus or send the ad to your friend. Thanks. international.au.dk/about/pr…

Same story for melodic stimuli (Alberti bass vs. isochronous melodies), shown by @dariquima, @nielschr_, @ahoejlund, Marcus Pearce, @ElviraBrattico, and @PVuust. #SysMus21

Had an amazing peer review experience. In paper X we got reviewers with an axe to grind against methods and in particular the use of informed priors. So when writing paper Y I chickened out 1/

I am happy to announce our new preprint on @biorxiv_neursci on automatic language processing in young and older together with @RashaHyder, @britta_wstnr, @ahoejlund, and Yury Shtyrov. [1/2]

Why is it so challenging for adults to learn a new language?
Excited to announce our latest paper on neural changes during speech learning, out now in @PNASNews. pnas.org/content/118/36/e210… 1/11

Hey @AcademicEEG, just a friendly reminder that the mean peak is the appropriate measure of ERP amplitude - max peak and base-to-peak are biased.
I'll explain our evidence for mean > max peak with the following figure in a mini🧵.
Thought?
