Like many I was very sad to learn that David Huron passed away. David was my very first mentor/project supervisor when I was an undergraduate at Ohio State and he was responsible for my transition from music into research. www.legacy.com/us/obituarie...

I had a great time chatting about neuroplasticity and hearing loss with Dr. Doug Beck on the Hearing Matters Podcast: www.buzzsprout.com/421432/episo...

Last is a recently published paper stemming from an undergrad thesis by Rayna Adachi, looking at differences in subjective and objective measures of hearing when predicting loneliness and social isolation. A bit different from the lab's typical fare.

Next up is a preprint looking at visual plasticity in age-related hearing loss using EEG. Takeaway is separate aging and hearing loss effects on visual evoked potentials, and there are differences between speech-like and non-speech stimuli.

A few updates from the lab / collaborations -- first up is visual cross-modal plasticity in CI users and speech outcomes, with Sunnybrook Hospital. Takeaway is longitudinal studies are needed to track visual plasticity in CI users over time.

I feel that the auditory research community has either not arrived here yet or is not very well connected. Please let me know who to add to this starter pack and self-nominate. 🧪

I'm looking for material to seed a "how to study" curriculum for undergraduates in neuroscience. Especially material that helps them wrap their heads around problem solving and generalization (not just memorization). Any leads?
