New paper in Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, Jessen et al.
Our lab (senior author Sarah Tune) teamed up once again with the Babylab Lübeck, led by Sarah Jessen: Sarah and Sarah co-wrote a great tutorial on how the versatile analysis framework of temporal response functions can be used to analyse brain data obtained in infants. The article has now been accepted for publication in the […]

New paper in Science Advances by Schmitt et al.
Very excited to announce that former Obleser lab PhD student Lea-Maria Schmitt with her co-authors *) is now out in the Journal Science Advances with her new work, fusing artifical neural networks and functional MRI data, on timescales of prediction in natural language comprehension: “Predicting speech from a cortical hierarchy of event-based time scales” *) […]

New Paper accepted in Plos Biology, Alavash et al.
Our lab is proud and happy that another major stepping stone from our ERC consolidator project (“AUDADAPT”) is now accepted for publication in PLoS Biology! Congratulations to our first author Dr Mohsen Alavash, now a senior researcher in the Obleser lab in his own right. Whoop. “ Dear Dr Alavash,I am pleased to inform you […]

New Paper in Cognition by Lavan, Kreitewolf et al.
Congratulations to former Obleser postdoc Jens Kreitewolf (now at McGill University) for his new paper in Cognition, “Familiarity and task context shape the use of acoustic information in voice identity perception”! Together with our colleagues from London, Nadine Lavan and Carolyn McGettigan, we took a new approach to test the longstanding theoretical claim that listeners […]

New Paper in Trends in Hearing by Kraus et al.
Frauke Kraus, Sarah Tune, Anna Ruhe, Jonas Obleser & Malte Wöstmann demonstrate that unilateral acoustic degradation delays attentional separation of competing speech. Unilateral cochlear implant (CI) users have to integrate acoustically intact speech on one ear and acoustically degraded speech on the other ear. How interact unilateral acoustic degradation and spatial attention in a multitalker […]

A quiet innovator: Peter Lakatos (1972–2021)
Our dear colleague and collaborator Peter Lakatos passed away suddenly two months ago. With Peter’s so untimely death at the age of 49, Neuroscience has suffered an unimaginable loss. It has been an honour and privilege to contribute Peter Lakatos’ obituary to Nature Neuroscience. — Jonas Obleser The picture shows Peter just after or during his talk […]

New paper in Nature Communications by Tune et al.
We are very excited to share that Obleserlab postdoc Sarah Tune has a new paper in Nature Communications. „Neural attentional-filter mechanisms of listening success in middle-aged and older participants“ is our latest and to-date most extensive output of the longitudinal ERC Consolidator project on adaptive listening in ageing individual (AUDADAPT). This co-production with current (Mohsen […]

New Perspective paper in Neuron by Waschke et al.
We are excited to share that former Obleserlab PhD student Leo Waschke, together with his new (Doug Garrett, Niels Kloosterman) and old (Jonas Obleser) lab has published an in-depth perspective piece in Neuron, with the provocative title “Behavior need neural variability”. Our article is essentially a long and extensive tribute to the “second moment” of neural […]
