Lower Cortical Activation and Altered Functional Connectivity Characterize Passive Auditory Spatial Attention in ASD Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental condition characterized by difficulties in social interaction, communication, and sensory processing. The ability to orient towards sounds is a key c...

Our new MEG study is out! Here, we show alterations in both auditory evoked responses and alpha-band connectivity during a passive spatial auditory task in ASD. We also found that functional connectivity is associated with ASD and sensory symptomatology.

New manuscript! Together with Junqing Huang & @straubeb.bsky.social, we used an innovative paradigm & DDM to show that gesture's processing hierarchy from a behavioral perspective!

Gestures are visual—but they’re also layered, structured, and unfold like language. 🧠🖐️

NEW PREPRINT
Iconic gestures are produced before the associated words and support prediction, but how does this work in children learning words?

"Profound Autism" Consensus Definition Debuts at INSAR Carving up the spectrum allows for more targeted research and interventions. But that only works if everyone does it the same way.

Anatomically distinct cortical tracking of music and speech by slow (1–8Hz) and fast (70–120Hz) oscillatory activity Music and speech encode hierarchically organized structural complexity at the service of human expressiveness and communication. Previous research has shown that populations of neurons in auditory reg...
