We’re excited to share a new breakthrough! Former Boilermaker Ravinderjit Singh has created a new way to measure how our brains process sound over time.

Thrilled to share our new preprint! 🎉We developed a new technique to measure central auditory temporal processing in humans, and demonstrated its utility by studying attention!
Big thanks to my co-author and mentor @Hari_Bharadwaj

One of our key findings was that higher demands of attention can alter activity as early as the brainstem!
I am excited about this novel measure's potential to aid in advancing our understanding of a variety of physiologic and pathologic processes.

Congratulations to all the incredible Neurology residents on #MatchDay2024!
Proud to introduce the newest residents to our programs! Welcome to the next chapter of your journey—we're thrilled to have you join the @MountSinaiNYC community!
Way to go Varsha Mysore Athreya @varshamathreya defending your dissertation last week!! Great data on peripheral & central effects of aging on temporal coding and speech in noise. Thanks for all you've done for our labs @Hari_Bharadwaj@HeinzLab_Purdue & @PurdueSLHS@PurdueHHS
Our EEG measure of cortical temporal integration can be reliably measured in an individual subject, and can thus be applied to assess cortical sensory processing in neural pathologies where temporal processing is thought to be altered.

My 1st first author paper with @Hari_Bharadwaj is out! We developed a novel systems identification approach to measure cortical temporal processing and related it to behavior.

We also found that our ability to track individual cycles of frequency modulations also exhibits a 10 Hz limit, suggesting that cortical temporal processing may constrain our perception of all dynamic auditory cues. The sluggishness is not unique to the binaural system!

The first episode of the Careers in Neurology Podcast is available now!
Have you ever wondered what it's like to care for people with neuromuscular disorders, what tools you have available for diagnosis, and what new treatments are available?
A while back, I was talking with a friend who'd moved to the US a few years prior
At some point, I said something like "we Americans..." and he froze with shock. He asked, "Wait, do you think of me as American?" Without much thought, I said "Of course!"
He paused for a while and then said, "Wow. Back home no one would ever refer to a recent immigrant that way. Heck, they wouldn't refer to any immigrant that way, even if they'd lived there for decades"
While the US has a lot of problems (many of which are our own making), this moment made me swell with joy and pride for this special place
Happy birthday, America. I'm so proud to be the citizen of a country where, if you choose to build your life here and contribute to your community, you can become an American too 🇺🇸
