YNiC seminar 22nd May (external speaker)

Dear Users This Thursday (from 4 pm in B020) there will be a talk on 'Context-dependent representation of auditory time' given by Sundeep Teki from UCL. http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/~steki/ <http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/%7Esteki/> Abstract: Perception of time is critical for accurate comprehension of natural auditory signals such as speech and music. This talk will present a range of behavioural and functional imaging studies supporting the emerging hypothesis that representation of time is highly context-dependent. Specifically, the talk will focus on the role of rhythmic structure of sequences in shaping human perception of time as well as recent work on the representation of temporal information in working memory. Sundeep will be in the department for a couple of hours prior to his seminar. If you would like to meet with him please email Becky Prince (becky.prince(a)york.ac.uk) or Sundeep (sundeep.teki(a)gmail.com) to schedule a meeting. Everyone is welcome to attend the seminar and refreshments will be available after the talk.
