SLAM Lab

We are proud to share our recent binaural beat EEG study.

Binaural Beats Boost Language Skills - Neuroscience News This research offers promising insights into the use of BB as a non-invasive tool for enhancing cognitive performance and potentially treating language disorders.

Dallas Symphony Orchestra and UT Dallas Partner on Speech, Language, and Music Study The DSO and UTD's Speech, Language and Music (SLAM) Lab hope to better understand the impact of music training on the brains of young people with the new study—which will involve 50 volunteers from the DSO’s Kim Noltemy Young Musicians program.

PARTICIPANTS NEEDED: SLAM Lab @ UT Dallas needs people aged 18+ for behavioral experiments about speech, language, and music. Must have: 1) no neurological conditions and 2) normal (or corrected-to-normal) vision & hearing. Please DM if interested!

New published paper! We found that beta and gamma binaural beats embedded in music enhanced performance on a syntactic reanalysis task. As far as we are aware, this is the first binaural beat study in the language domain. Paper linked here: https://rdcu.be/c6BSZ

The SLAM lab had so much celebrating Hyun and Jenna's new published paper!

****New study alert! The SLAM lab is now recruiting participants for a study that is observing the effects of a sound-based brain stimulation technique on healthy aging! This study will take around 1 hour and you will be compensated for your participation! Please email [email protected] if you are interested! 😃

Do you know someone who has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease and also loves music? We are recruiting participants for a study. If you know anyone who would be interested in this, please share and help our lab continue the search for Alzheimer's Disease treatments! Feel free to message us with any questions. 🎧🎼💜

The SLAM lab is currently trying to understand how sound can be used as an alternative therapeutic for dementia. Why is music and sound important?

Big congrats to SLAMMERS Katie and Katherine on successfully graduating!
