A neurophysiological study into the foundations of tonal harmony.
(Neuroreport, 2009-02-18)Our findings provide magnetoencephalographic evidence that the mismatch-negativity response to two-note chords (dyads) is modulated by a combination of abstract cognitive differences and lower-level differences in the auditory ... -
Highly parallel acoustic assembly of microparticles into well-ordered colloidal crystallites.
(Soft Matter, 2016-01-21)The precise arrangement of microscopic objects is critical to the development of functional materials and ornately patterned surfaces. Here, we present an acoustics-based method for the rapid arrangement of microscopic particles ... -
Listening in.
(Elife, 2015-10-21)Zebra finches communicate with each other in ways that are more complex than previously thought. -
Precision Measurement of the Sound Velocity in an Ultracold Fermi Gas Through the BEC-BCS Crossover
(2010)A trapped Fermi gas near a collisional resonance provides a unique laboratory for testing many-body theories in a variety of fields. The ultracold Fermi gas produced in our lab is comprised of the lowest two spin states ... -
Single neurons may encode simultaneous stimuli by switching between activity patterns.
(Nature communications, 2018-07-13)How the brain preserves information about multiple simultaneous items is poorly understood. We report that single neurons can represent multiple stimuli by interleaving signals across time. We record single units in an auditory ... -
Systematic mapping of the monkey inferior colliculus reveals enhanced low frequency sound representation.
(Journal of neurophysiology, 2011-04)We investigated the functional architecture of the inferior colliculus (IC) in rhesus monkeys. We systematically mapped multiunit responses to tonal stimuli and noise in the IC and surrounding tissue of six rhesus macaques, ...
