What aspects of language are universal, and which are due to familiarity? A @nature.com paper finds that while STG shows shared responses to basic speech sounds, only native language boosts encoding of word boundaries + sound-sequence stats 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Shared and language-specific phonological processing in the human temporal lobe - Nature
The human superior temporal gyrus processes acoustic–phonetic properties of speech regardless of whether the language is familiar to the listener, but only encodes word boundaries and language-sp...

Very excited to introduce InteroMap, a new bodily mapping tool designed to measure how we subjectively experience our bodily sensations, what we call interoceptive phenomenology 🧵👇

Do you remember your first #JNeurosci paper?
Linda Overstreet-Wadiche recalls her first paper published in the journal about synaptic plasticity and motor behavior and its long-lasting impact in the field.

Our paper @sarabogels.bsky.social covering our pre-registered multi-year research is now finally out in Cognition. We show that in conversations people reduce their multimodal signals non-linearly; the steeper this non-linear drop-off the more communicative success.

#JNeurosci | Uner et al. explored a phenomenon in which visual distractors, or noise, can enhance how people detect weak visual signals. The researchers found that different types of visual noise can promote vision in a participant-specific manner. https://doi.org/10.1523/JNEUROSCI.0853-25.2025

I've been thinking about this just this morning. At least 80% of our research (and training) time should focus on research design. But we ignore design, hoping that the rest could be handled post-data, during the analysis stage. We end up producing endless garbage data, which our methods aren't
