Our study led by @kylemrupp showing categorical encoding of voice in STS / STG! This paper shows: 1) voice coding does not depend on linguistic content 2) voice-sensitive sites in STS code for voice category rather than lower level acoustic features. @JasmineHect @readymadeloaf

In three pre-registered TMS studies we reveal feedforward and feedback processes supporting the recognition of objects based on local features and based on scene context. With @MilesWischnews1 @DondersInst elifesciences.org/articles/6… Thread 👇

See the new preprint from @lina_teichmann @TGrootswagers @DeniseMoerel They have put together a user's guide to Bayes Factors for time series decoding analyses (e.g. M/EEG) - hope it's helpful!

A cargo ship that burned off Sri Lanka's coast for 2 weeks is now sinking with 300 tons of oil in its tanks, threatening an oil spill. The ship leaked microplastics to beaches, sparking an environmental disaster. Fishing is now banned, a "death blow" to thousands of livelihoods.
