UNLV Auditory Cognition and Development Lab

We had so much fun last weekend hosting families for Science is Everywhere! https://www.scifest.vegas/scienceiseverywhere

Exciting new paper about animal musicality, providing evidence that bees can discriminate rhythmic patterns!

Bumble bees show a surprising knack for rhythm Flexible rhythm perception, once thought to require a big brain, has been shown in humble bumble bees

Members of our lab were a part of the huge replication project discussed in this article (now published in Nature, link in comments). The results are somewhat disappointing --only roughly half the papers/claims replicated, and AI did not help predict which studies would replicate. But the hope is that this work will eventually help us build a more robust science.

Can Science Predict When a Study Won’t Hold Up? (Gift Article) Conducting research is hard; confirming the results is, too. And artificial intelligence isn’t yet ready to help, a major new study finds.
