Why is the literature relating music and cognition so contradictory? Some studies report strong cognitive advantages associated with musical training, while others find weak or null effects. How can both be true?

This framework can naturally generate both positive and null findings across studies — without assuming that the literature is inconsistent or flawed. A few years later, we provided behavioral evidence supporting this proposal. nature.com/articles/s44271-0…

Together, these studies suggest that the link between music and cognition may not be linear or universal, but critically dependent on individual rhythmic capacities. Really happy to have worked on these ideas over the years with @Fher_LizcanoC and Pablo Ripolles

Phonological processing=left dorsal stream? Not in Mexican Spanish-speaking children at reading onset. Here, bilateral ventral pathways predict phonological awareness. Neuroscience must broaden the populations it studies to build generalizable brain models.doi.org/10.1162/NOL.a.246

Did you ever wonder if statistical learning is still plausible for non rhythmic stimulus? My friends @Ireririri @PabloRiVi @JOGBCN @davidpoeppel and I answered this question here: authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti…

Replicating a finding previously established in German-speaking and English-speaking cohorts, Norwegian-speaking participants likewise form a bimodal distribution of high synchronizers and low synchronizers. @GuroSjuls @FlorAssaneo @MilaVulchanova nature.com/articles/s44271-0…

Happy to share the first paper 100% done in hablab (my new lab at @UNAM_MX). Auditory-motor synch is much more restricted than previously assumed, not everyone can synchronize to anything! rdcu.be/de4wx

Yesterday we had the last day of the audiomotor symposium. We finished by two immense talks. Steven Eliades with a brilliant feedback loop model in marmosets and Robert Zatorre explaining the dosal and ventral streams for music. What a great meeting! #AIC2023
