Hearing Faces: How the Infant Brain Matches the Face It Sees with the Speech It Hears

Speech is not a purely auditory signal. From around 2 months of age, infants are able to correctly match the vowel they hear with the appropriate articulating face. However, there is no behavioral evidence of integrated audiovisual perception until 4 months of age, at the earliest, when an illusory percept can be created by the fusion of the auditory stimulus and of the facial cues (McGurk effe...

Whether the hearing brain hears it or the deaf brain sees it, it's just the same.

Lauren Hartke, Don DeLillo’s protagonist in The Body Artist (1), does not have to look at her husband to feel him drifting away. Words and pauses between them car...

Dark Matter Sees The Light

We construct a Dark Matter (DM) annihilation module that can encompass the predictions from a wide array of models built to explain the recently reported PAMELA and ATIC/PPB-BETS excesses. We present a detailed analysis of the injection spectrums for DM annihilation and quantitatively demonstrate effects that have previously not been included from the particle physics perspective. With this mod...
