Hello to everybody that has been having a horrible 2020! We at brainWaves are left without a recording studio during the COVID-19 pandemic. But after six months of boredom, we decided it was time to solve the brain again. If we sound worse, it's because we are recording from the safety of our homes! In this episode, we are (remotely) joined by undergraduate academic Rachel Sorrells, who recently published a paper in Frontiers For Young Minds in collaboration with our very own Maansi Desai! T...

On this episode, we welcome Drs. Rosemary Lester-Smith and Spencer Smith to the cast, two professors in UT's Communication Sciences & Disorders department. Dr. Smith is an audiologist by trade and studies speech perception in noise. Dr. Lester-Smith is a speech-language pathologist by trade and studies essential vocal tremor. As dueling clinician-scientists in adjacent fields, they offer unique insight into why it's important for researchers to pay attention to clinical practice and why i...
Hi friends! Sorry for the delay on this episode — Maansi and I were scrambling at the end of the semester to get stuff done.It’s just us this time, and we are talking about something that is at the core of neuroscientific research — how the heck do we record data from the brain? Turns out there are a bunch of different ways, and each has its own pros and cons. Maansi and I give you the scoop.Thanks as always to Riohso for our intro and outro music: https://soundcloud.com/riohsoFollow us on Tw...
In this episode, Maansi and Garret interview Dylan Hungate, a young man who is in the few elite who have had the rare opportunity to study their own brain invasively. He is a classically trained pianist who underwent epilepsy surgery and designed an experiment to help preserve his music talent after the surgery.Thanks as always to Riohso for our intro and outro music: https://soundcloud.com/riohsoFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/brainwaves_castGot questions?

In this episode, Maansi and Garret are joined by none other than Liberty Hamilton! Dr. Hamilton is a computational neuroscientist who studies the neurophysiology of speech and language through an invasive procedure known as electrocorticography (A.K.A., ECoG). Oh, and she's also our boss!
Started from the bottom, now we here. Maansi and Garret tell their life stories to set the stage for the rest of the podcast.Piano sample at 1:35 is Ballade No. 3 in Ab Major, Op. 47 (Frederic Chopin), performed by our very own Maansi Desai.Thanks as always to Riohso for our intro and outro music: https://soundcloud.com/riohsoFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/brainwaves_castGot questions?
