Very happy to participate again in the NCCRWomen campaign! We will introduce you to five of our researchers this week, just a few days before the #InternationalWomensDay! Our first woman is @licataae, a phd student in the NoCe Lab Université de Genève. #WomenInScience

A good weekend read from our lab! “Joint, distributed and hierarchically organized encoding of linguistic features in the human auditory cortex”. rdcu.be/c6J8a

🧠💻Decoding imagined speech from the #brain. New unige collab with implanted electrodes & #AI #algorithms. Results could offer a crucial lifeline for those who have lost the ability to communicate. Pierre Mégevand @Hopitaux_unige Silvia Marchesotti Giraud Lab wysscenter.ch/advances/speak…

Happy to collaborate towards this challenging common goal! And extremely excited about our ongoing experiments using an intracranial Brain-Computer Interface we Giraud Lab have developed in collaboration with the Epilepsy Unit at the @Hopitaux_unige & Pierre Mégevand #BCI 1/3

Extracting multiple levels of information from continuous speech on-line: Yaqing Su et al. suggests in PLOS Biology a more interpretable, brain-centered approach to modelling #speech comprehension than what neural-net #language models like #GPT-2 do 👉journals.plos.org/plosbiology/ar…

The next Bernstein Student Workshop Series starts in two weeks! More information👉bit.ly/BN_SWS #BernsteinNetwork #ComputationalNeuroscience Yue Kris Wu Roxana Zeraati

Giraud Lab developed a computer model combining linguistic and non-linguistic top-down prediction generation and bottom-up sensory input incorporation to disambiguate words meaning. A way to a new more holistic generation of #AI #language model ? NCCR Evolving Language

Do #chimpanzee food calls bias listeners toward novel items? New paper with NCCR members Eloïse Déaux Giraud Lab Geneva University Neuro🧠Center & Klaus Zuberbühler Comparative Cognition Neuchatel in AmJournalPrimatology explores how #food #grunts facilitates learning of new feeding behaviors👉onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/aj…

Last week, Aaron Earle-Richardson (research technician, Duke Neurology) presented Timothée Proix’s Giraud Lab paper using low- and cross-frequency EEG features to further deconstruct imagined speech. This 🧵 explores our thoughts (🤍 & ❔) nature.com/articles/s4146…

One piece of my PhD work with Giraud Lab and Marie Schaer is finally out. Our paper shows that neural oscillation coupling is the index of the speech reception anomaly in children with #Autism. jneurosci.org/content/early/…

Out in CORTEX: Case of a patient who developed borderline personality disorder after a large tumor resection. We mirror the diagnosis in a self-other voice discrimination task, both behaviorally and in task-associated EEG patterns. rb.gy/2roqg Preprint 🧵⬇️

Excited to have my favorite & last-remaining PhD-paper with Blanke Lab out in Cambridge UP - Psychology & Psychiatry! Robotically-induced AVH (hearing voices) in healthy subjects quantified as other-voice false alarms in a self-other voice detection task 🔗 t.ly/3p07L 👀details in🧵⬇️

"Speech Reception in Young Children with Autism Is Selectively Indexed by a Neural Oscillation Coupling Anomaly" New paper by the Giraud Lab featuring Xiaoyue Wang Silvia Marchesotti Marie Schaer among others. Congrats! In SfN Journals #JNeurosci #OpenAccess jneurosci.org/content/43/40/…

Check out our exciting and new preprint by Pavo Orepic and Neural Dynamics Lab and others.

Implants and other technologies that decode neural activity can restore people’s abilities to move and speak — and help researchers to understand how the brain works go.nature.com/3OOuWTh

Great comprehensive article covering the latest trends in Brain-Computer Interface, including our speech-BCI study on training healthy participants! 🧠 NCCR Evolving Language Université de Genève Giraud Lab Kinkini_bhadra
