Second waves, social distancing, and the spread of COVID-19 across the USA
We recently described a dynamic causal model of a COVID-19 outbreak within a single
region. Here, we combine several instantiations of this (epidemic) model to create a …

Impaired neural response to speech edges in dyslexia
Speech comprehension has been proposed to critically rely on oscillatory cortical tracking,
that is, phase alignment of neural oscillations to the slow temporal modulations (envelope) …

Neural entrainment to speech and nonspeech in dyslexia: conceptual replication and extension of previous investigations
Whether phonological deficits in developmental dyslexia are associated with impaired

The human auditory cortex concurrently tracks syllabic and phonemic timescales via acoustic spectral flux
Dynamical theories of speech processing propose that the auditory cortex parses acoustic
information in parallel at the syllabic and phonemic timescales. We developed a paradigm to …
