What a week!!! Our 3 PhDs @SaraMazzini4 @VeerleWilms @marlijnterbekke went to 3 different conferences... And all won the poster prize!!! 🎉✨ We're so proud!!! And lucky to be working with such fab colleagues! <3 @MPI_NL @DondersInst

A new study by @marlijnterbekke @judithholler et al. shows that listeners can better anticipate when a current speaker will stop talking when they can see them, especially their torso, hands and arms, suggesting a beneficial role for hand gestures.

New preprint by @CeciliaHusta, who used the PWI paradigm and RIFT+EEG to investigate the attentional distribution between speech planning and comprehension (and again replicating the intermodulation frequency :-))

[lindadrijvers.bskyapp.social @lindadrijvers]

New preprint w/ @CeciliaHusta and Antje Meyer: we used RIFT to study the attentional distribution between speech planning and comprehension. Read the exciting results here! @combrainlab https://t.co/hrgorC78Jx

Another great paper led by @marlijnterbekke! Gestures speed up responses to questions 🫴🤌👌, check it out here!

[Communicative Brain lab @combrainlab]

New work by @marlijnterbekke et al: gestures have predictive potential and typically start before their corresponding information. Read her exciting work below!

Check out this new review on neural oscillations in audiovisual language and communication by @SaraMazzini4 and @lindadrijvers!

[lindadrijvers.bskyapp.social @lindadrijvers]

@SaraMazzini4 and I wrote a review on neural oscillations in audiovisual language and communication, which just got accepted as a chapter in the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Neuroscience! Check out the preprint version here: https://t.co/0NN9OreaCc

Our first team science effort: how does the noise in your living environment affect multimodal language processing? Check out our new preprint below to find out!

[Noor Seijdel @noorseijdel]

How does the noise we experience(d) in the environment affect how much visual information we use while processing speech in adverse listening conditions?🔊In this teamscience project we (@combrainlab) investigated this question @SaraMazzini4 @lindadrijvers https://t.co/VQvVqsXiDr

[Communicative Brain lab @combrainlab]

Super proud of @SaraMazzini4 who just got her paper accepted on how to combine dual-EEG and audiovisual recordings!! @neurobiolang Check it out here:

[Sara Mazzini @SaraMazzini4]

🚨New preprint alert!
Very excited to share our protocol on how to combine dual-EEG and audio-visual recordings to study naturalistic human communication: https://t.co/stA7geXJzh @JudithHoller @lindadrijvers

[Communicative Brain lab @combrainlab]

Come work with us!

[lindadrijvers.bskyapp.social @lindadrijvers]

I'm looking for a fulltime RA/post-doc for one year, starting asap. Experience with M/EEG and/or an interest in multimodal language preferred. Contact me for more info! :)

[gespin2023 @gespin2023]

We're excited to announce the four keynotes for GeSpIn2023: Dr. Esteve Gibert, Dr. He, Prof. Fuchs and Prof. Goller. Please join us in Nijmegen next September to hear about their exciting work, that of many scholars in the field and to present your own. Submission will open soon!

[Communicative Brain lab @combrainlab]

And finally also today: I will be presenting a dual-EEG study with @JudithHoller on inter-brain and intra-brain synchrony in face-to-face communication at poster C15 #SNL2022

[lindadrijvers.bskyapp.social @lindadrijvers]

I'm presenting a poster on work w/ @JudithHoller on inter- and intra-brain synchrony in face-to-face communication today. Come say hi at poster C15! #SNL2022 @SNLmtg

[Communicative Brain lab @combrainlab]

Next up is @SaraMazzini4 at poster C41, with some exciting preliminary results on inter-brain synchrony in naturalistic communication in clear and noisy speech. Come say hi! #SNL2022

[Sara Mazzini @SaraMazzini4]

If you are curious about this project using dual-EEG to study naturalistic face-to-face communication, come by my poster C41 at 10:15 am. #SNL2022

[Marianne de Heer Kloots (🦋/mdhk.net) @mariannedhk]

I’m presenting my poster in session B tonight @SNLmtg #SNL2022 (B19)! If you are also curious why activations in some parts of Transformer language models seem more similar to human brain activity than others, then I hope to see you there 😄

Really excited to present new work on the dynamics of phrase-structure building in spontaneous production and comprehension at #SNL2022 today during slide session A on language production!
