Final Thursday of January: 🗓️
Super Bowl parties approaching 🏈🎉.
American users pre-ordering devices for noisy living rooms 🔊📦;
Norwegian users doing the same for Premier League watch parties ⚽📺.
Same acoustic challenge, different sport.

Universal need for speech-in-noise clarity 👂✨

#SpeechInNoise #GlobalUsage

Time for a new #Introduction . I’m a Lecturer in #Neuroscience in #London at the #UniversityOfRoehampton . I study #NoiseExposure & #HearingLoss & how it affects #AuditoryProcessing , #Audiology , & #Hearing ; particularly #SpeechInNoise & #PredictiveCoding . I focus on #HiddenHearingLoss noise exposure & I’m really interested in the intersection between noise exposure & #Neurodivergent conditions like #Autism & #Schizophrenia .

My home is a #Boat & most of my pictures here involve my #Cat .

Our chapter “Listening difficulty: From hearing to language” is out in the book series The Psychology of Learning and Motivation! We highlight often overlooked connections between cognitive hearing science and psycholinguistics and make recommendations for moving the fields forward together.

Our new #trendsinhearing paper is out!
We found evidence that anticipation of upcoming listening difficulty impacted baseline pupil size and the shape of the task-evoked pupil response during 60-sec story listening.
Led by former UMD postdoc Mike Johns in collaboration with @jzsimon and many others.

So, I’m not a vision researcher, but #Futurama that is not where the visual cortex is. Fry needed to wear a Vision Pro or something with the back strap to be near it. #Pedant

I guess I should probably do an #Introduction as well. I’m a #Neuroscience #Postdoc in #Spain studying #NoiseExposure & #HearingLoss & how it affects #AuditoryProcessing, #Audiology, & #Hearing; particularly #SpeechInNoise & #PredictiveCoding. I focus on #HiddenHearingLoss noise exposure & I’m really interested in the intersection between noise exposure & #Neurodivergent conditions like #Autism & #Schizophrenia.
