The paper entitled Self-generation and sound intensity interactively modulate perceptual bias, but not perceptual sensitivity, by Paraskevoudi Nadia and SanMiguel Iria, has been published in the journal Scientific Reports. This paper is the outcome of a scientific study of the research line Predictive processes in Motor-Sensory interactions of the Brainlab that focuses on mechanisms underlying […]
It is with great excitement that we are happy to announce the fourth edition of the Frequency-Following Response (FFR) Workshop, to be held at University of Barcelona (Catalonia-Spain) on June 8-10, 2022. Inspired by the former successful editions in London (2014, 2019) and Boston (2016), the idea of the workshop is to attract the increasing […]
Música electrónica y bailabilidad ¿Hasta qué punto ciertos elementos musicales hacen que una pieza sea más o menos bailable? Mediante este piloto online, queremos dar respuesta a esta pregunta utilizando música electrónica. Este piloto es parte del proyecto interdisciplinar “ARTSOUNDSCAPES – explorando los paisajes sonoros del arte rupestre y lo sagrado”. ¿Qué tengo que […]
The paper entitled Frequency-following response acquisition parameters with speech stimulus in infants: A systematic review, by, Lemos, Nunes, Evangelista, Escera, Taveira, Balen, been published in the Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. This paper is the outcome of a scientific collaboration between the Brainlab and the Prof. Sheila Andreoli Balen (Federal University of Rio […]
The University of Barcelona has launched the Master+UB Programme to motivate scientific careers by carrying out a Master’s degree within a research group. The Brainlab has secured one of such fellowships linked to the Master in Research in Behavior and Cognition. If you are interested, make sure you fulfill the requirements and contact us at […]
In this very first experiment to be carried out in our brain-new Immersive Psychoacoustics Lab (immpaLAB) by early-stage researcher Samantha López-Mochales, we are setting up the probe of concept of our experimental approach to test the role of environmental acoustics in ancient rock art sites to shape human experience. The immpaLAB is a twenty-five square […]
Perceptual and emotional responses to rock art soundscapes Call for participants! This auditory experiment aims to link the perception of natural sounds and the emotions evoked by these with properties of the (natural) space where these are located. This is a psychoacoustics experiment of the interdisciplinary project “ARTSOUNDSCAPES – exploring rock art soundscapes and the […]
The paper entitled Neural encoding of voice pitch and formant structure at birth as revealed by frequency-following responses, by, Arenillas-Alcón, S., Costa-Faidella, J., Ribas-Prats, T., Gómez-Roig, M.D., and Escera, C. has been published in the journal Scientific Reports. This paper is the second published outcome of the scientific collaboration between the Brainlab and the Obstetrics and […]
Experimento de memoria con registro de EEG y EyeTracking ¡Necesitamos participantes para un experimento! Nuestro objetivo es estudiar la memoria para estímulos auditivos bajo ciertas condiciones. Te pediremos que realices una tarea de memoria auditiva mientras registramos la dilatación de tu pupila con un EyeTracker y tu actividad cerebral con un electroencefalograma (EEG). El experimento […]
