Frontiers | Distinct and content-specific neural representations of self- and other-produced actions in joint piano performance

Cool study! Two pianists, separated in different rooms: one plays right hand part, the other left. Using MPVA it suggests that the premotor cortex is anticipating the other player's hand while M1 sorts out their own. 🧠🎶🎹

Asymmetric Sampling in Time: Evidence and perspectives Auditory and speech signals are undisputedly processed in both left and right hemispheres, but this bilateral allocation is likely unequal. The Asymme…

20+ years ago, an idea about cortical lateralization of audition was advanced: asymmetric sampling in time (AST). This extensive review/reevaluation by Chantal Oderbolz, me, and Martin Meyer assesses how the idea has fared. #notallwrong

Thrilled to share our new paper with @candrew123.bsky.social & @davidpoeppel.bsky.social 🧠🎵 Amazing work by Andrew, who led this study uncovering how the brain encodes pitch—first linearly, then transforming into a helix-like structure! 🔄🎶 Check it out: #MusicNeuroscience #AuditoryCognition

Exciting new work from one of my outstanding colleagues! 🎉 A comprehensive framework unifying visual working memory mechanisms, built from a large-scale experiment. Kudos! 👏
