After a forced worldwide break for in-person conferences and workshops due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have had the opportunity to hold the fourth edition of the Frequency-Following Response (FFR) Workshop<\/strong><\/em> on 8th-10th June at the University of Barcelona (Catalonia, Spain). With the aim of bringing the FFR community together and discussing on different features that characterize this intriguing evoked potential, the workshop has included several oral presentations, three plenary talks, poster sessions and a final roundtable discussion.<\/p>\n

The event started with the first plenary talk given by Dr. Erika Skoe, from the University of Connecticut (USA), providing FFR insights from studies performed on bilingual populations. On the second day, we had the chance to hear Dr. Bharath Chandrasekaran, from the University of Pittsburgh (USA), holding a discussion on the FFR neural sources and modulatory influences. Dr. Gavin Bidelman, from the University of Memphis (USA), gave the last plenary talk reviewing innovations in FFR research paradigms, characterizing online changes in brainstem-cortical function that are essential for robust speech perception.<\/p>\n

Several oral communications were also presented by researchers and experts discussing classic and new topics in this rapidly evolving field of research, questioning the origins and interpretation of the response, and exploring new recording and analysis techniques. FFR acquisition and development across lifespan and its characterization in different populations or species were also discussed throughout the different oral and poster sessions, with special interest on the need to standardize methodologies for clinical practice. An engaging final roundtable discussion, led by Nina Kraus, from Northwestern University (USA), closed the workshop incorporating different thoughts and future orientations in this research area.<\/p>\n

We are very honored to have organized this edition of the FFR Workshop<\/strong><\/em>, which was inspired by former editions in London (2014, 2019) and Boston (2016). We are looking forward to enjoy the upcoming one, that will surely be held soon!<\/p>\n<\/div>
