Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at the University of Cambridge @mrccbu and @Newnham_College. Studies speech production and perception and their interactions 🗣️
Cambridge, England
Joined October 2016
I am thrilled to announce that I will be starting a @LeverhulmeTrust Early Career Fellowship next week @mrccbu! I'll be applying predictive coding accounts to the study of speech production, and the links between production and perception 🗣️

Our paper on suppression of onset responses during speech production in auditory cortex (and lack thereof in the insula!) is now out in @SfNJournals ! Onset responses may provide an important cue for externally generated sounds! Thread below with info.
New @biorxivpreprint from my lab is out! We (grad student Kurteff et al) use intracranial sEEG to show selective suppression of auditory onset responses during speaking, with a unique role of the posterior insula in auditory feedback monitoring

A pleasure to have Birtan to visit and chat all things speech motor control!
It was a pleasure to present my PhD research with Dr. Matt Davis' group at @The_MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit, @Cambridge_Uni, covering topics from sensorimotor learning in speech to stuttered vs. fluent utterances. Many thanks to @ABradshawPhD for the invitation!

New blog post on our recent paper in Psychonomic Bulletin and Review!
Our speech 🗣️ changes based on the speakers around us. Find out how in a post by @brettrmyers on #psynomPBR paper by @ABradshawPhD, @_emmawheeler_, @c_mcgettigan, and Daniel Lametti.

Overall, I hope this study inspires other AAF/adaptation work to study sensorimotor control during more interactive speaking contexts! 🗣️👂

These findings suggest the use of shared sensory targets in speech for predicting the sensory outcomes of both the actions of others (as in perception) and the actions of the self (as in production).

In response to the same formant perturbation, the incongruent group showed significantly reduced adaptation compared to the congruent group.

To test this, we compared adaptation between two groups who both engaged in synchronous speech. We manipulated the formants of the other voice such that convergence to it was either in the same direction (congruent) or opposite direction (incongruent) to adaptation.

In a previous study we showed that, compared to solo speech, speech motor adaptation during synchronous speech was highly variable. One potential explanation for this higher variability was the effect of simultaneous phonetic convergence to the other voice

Thrilled to get this paper out, a great collaboration with @UCL_VoCoLab, @Addlesee_AI and @verena_rieser on how self-bias and sense of agency over a voice is altered when that voice is used to represent oneself in a social interaction.

Hot off the press- an “Unsolved mysteries” article focused on updated science and gaps remaining in our understanding of the neurobiology of stuttering.
The mysterious origin of #stuttering is closely linked to early brain development in children. Nicole Neef & @sooeunchang investigate the #neuroscience that is inspiring questions about links between genetics, neural networks and social factors. https://t.co/44Zd0B7Ei3
