Interactive Metronome Featured on The Brainvolts Auditory Neuroscience Laboratory Website
Dr. Nina Kraus leads a diverse team of researchers and clinicians at The Auditory Neuroscience Laboratory (Brainvolts) as they investigate the way brains process sounds, finding that auditory ability is a strong indicator of brain health.
Brainvolts has discovered how to measure the biology of auditory processing with unprecedented precision. Together they extend science beyond the laboratory to schools, community centers, and clinics.
Using the principles of neuroscience to improve human communication, the Brainvolts team advocates for best practices in education, health, and social policy.
Miranda could walk the walk, now she talks the talk
Miranda and her twin sister are like two peas in a pod, literally...they are twins. But while they looked the same, Miranda's health problems led to developmental delays that have made her shy and anxious. She wasn't going to let her Visual Processing and Auditory Processing Disorders hold her back though. Find out how IM training helped Miranda come out of her shell and start communicating with the same flare with which she always dressed.
Body Movement Selectively Shapes the Neural Representation of Musical Rhythms
Exciting research study from the Institute of Neuroscience, System and Cognition Department, the Universite Catholique de Louvain, and the International Laboratory for Brain, Music and Sound Research. This study highlights the differences in brain responses (as measured by electroencephalography) before, during and after participants were moving to a rhythm.
Is Visual or Auditory IM Training More Appropriate?
We often get questions on how to use IM with specific populations, how to work with the equipment and anything else that is causing our Providers headaches. Amy Vega, a fabulous SLP and our Clinical Education Director, is here to answer those questions from time to time. Today, she tackles an important question for parents and our OT and PT professionals: is it by seeing the information or hearing it that your client pays attention to it and comprehends it best in daily life?
