Presenting at the 51st Annual Scientific and Technology Conference of the American Auditory Society
From Scottsdale, Arizona! We presented two posters at the 51st Annual Scientific and Technology Conference of the American Auditory Society held from February 15 – 17, 2024. One of the posters explored the role of timescale of temporal fine structure in speech perception. The second poster was aimed at examining the oscillatory mechanisms underlying syllable perception during increased attention and working memory demands.
