Dear Users
This afternoon (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 Gilbert
(Prince) (becky.prince(a)york.ac.uk) or Sundeep (sundeep.teki(a)gmail.com)
to schedule a meeting.
We will be taking Sundeep to dinner at Red Chilli before he returns to
London this evening. Please let me know if you would like to join us for
dinner.
Everyone is welcome to attend the seminar and refreshments will be
available after the talk.
Best wishes
Rebecca
