Subject: [AUDITORY] Seminar Announcement - October 11 - E.A.R.S. (Electronic Auditory Research Seminars) From: "Vogler, Nathan" <Nathan.Vogler@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2022 20:35:05 +0000 --_000_MN2PR04MB6127182988B1C07D5E9DA2ACC8549MN2PR04MB6127namp_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear fellow neuroscientists, We would like to invite you to join us on Tuesday, October 11 at 1:00 pm ED= T (UTC-4) for the next edition of E.A.R.S. (Electronic Auditory Research Se= minars), a monthly auditory seminar series focused on central auditory proc= essing and circuits. IMPORTANT: Please note that we have migrated the seminars to Zoom. You can = access the seminars here: https://pennmedicine.zoom.us/j/95396120820. This = link is also posted on our website https://sites.google.com/view/ears2020/h= ome. The E.A.R.S. subscriber list will migrate from Crowdcast to the ears-s= eminar google group, which you can join by emailing: ears2022+subscribe@xxxxxxxx= glegroups.com<mailto:ears2022+subscribe@xxxxxxxx> or visiting the f= ollowing the link: https://groups.google.com/g/ears2022. If you want to sta= y subscribed, there is no need to do anything, your email address will be a= utomatically transferred. Speakers: * Karine Fenelon (University of Massachusetts Amherst): Title TBA * Abstract TBA * Malte W=F6stmann (Universit=E4t zu L=FCbeck): Behavioural and electro= physiological signatures of auditory distraction in time and space * Acoustic events in our environment are often relevant for behaviou= r, but irrelevant sounds can be powerful sources of distraction. Auditory a= ttention is thought to enhance target sounds and to suppress distraction. I= will present evidence from behavioural and electroencephalography (EEG) st= udies in humans that elucidate the spatial and temporal dynamics of process= ing distracting sounds. First, when we decouple auditory target enhancement= from distractor suppression in spatial attention, we find two respective l= ateralized alpha oscillatory responses in the EEG (~10 Hz), which are uncor= related. This demonstrates that the neurobiological foundation of auditory = spatial attention implies a selection-independent neural mechanism related = to processing distraction. Second, when we vary the onset time of auditory = distractors, we find that distractor onset co-modulates distractor-evoked b= ehavioural detriments in memory performance and EEG responses in ~2=965 cyc= les per second. This suggests that auditory distractibility is not uniforml= y distributed across time but exhibits spontaneous fluctuations on a sub-se= cond time scale. Additional upcoming E.A.R.S seminars (1:00 pm ET): * 11/01/2022: Professional Development session * 12/13/2022: Trainee Talks With kind wishes, Maria Geffen Yale Cohen Steve Eliades Stephen David Alexandria Lesicko Nathan Vogler Jean-Hugues Lestang Huaizhen Cai --_000_MN2PR04MB6127182988B1C07D5E9DA2ACC8549MN2PR04MB6127namp_ Content-Type: text/html; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html xmlns:o=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:w=3D"urn:sc= hemas-microsoft-com:office:word" xmlns:m=3D"http://schemas.microsoft.com/of= fice/2004/12/omml" xmlns=3D"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"> <head> <meta http-equiv=3D"Content-Type" content=3D"text/html; charset=3DWindows-1= 252"> <meta name=3D"Generator" content=3D"Microsoft Word 15 (filtered medium)"> <style></style> </head> <body lang=3D"EN-US" link=3D"#0563C1" vlink=3D"#954F72" style=3D"word-wrap:= break-word"> <div class=3D"WordSection1"> Dear fellow neuroscientists,<o:p></o:p> <p style=3D"mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;mar= gin-left:0in;line-height:16.5pt;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;-we= bkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;word-break:break-word;font-variant-ligatur= es: normal;font-variant-caps: normal;orphans: 2;text-align:start;widows: 2;= -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;text-decoration-thickness: initial;text-deco= ration-style: initial;text-decoration-color: initial;word-spacing:0px"> We would like to invite you to join us <spa= n style=3D"font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Lato",sans-serif;color:#= 2F2F2F">on Tuesday, October 11 at 1:00 pm EDT&n= bsp;(UTC-4) for the next edition of E.A.R.S.
