New BBS article w/ @lauragwilliams.bsky.social and Hinze Hogendoorn, just accepted! We respond to a thought-provoking article by @smfleming.bsky.social & @matthiasmichel.bsky.social, and argue that it's premature to conclude that conscious perception is delayed by 350-450ms: bit.ly/4nYNTlb

Neural tracking of natural speech: an effective marker for post-stroke aphasia
The study examined brain responses to natural speech, i.e. neural tracking, in post-stroke aphasia. Individuals with aphasia exhibited reduced neural track
