YNiC seminar 5th March

Dear Users This week two Users will be reporting on developments in their MEG projects: 1) Andy Young "Impact of responses on subsequent trials in MEG" 2) Sam Mathias "What are the neural correlates of detecting and naming the direction of changes in pitch?" A number of psychophysical experiments have suggested that simply detecting a change in frequency between pure tones and naming the direction of pitch shifts rely on separable mechanisms. To my knowledge, no neuroimaging studies have investigated this directly. In the presentation I will give a (very) brief outline of the relevant literature and explain the motivation behind my proposal for an MEG study to be conducted at YNiC. Everyone is welcome to attend. Best wishes Rebecca -- ************************************************************************ Dr. Rebecca E.
