On October 15, 2026 we spoke with Dr. Edward Bartlett about how the auditory system detects and encodes rapid changes in sound amplitude essential for the detection of speech sounds. He explained the temporal sensitivity of single neurons in the upper brainstem auditory structures, the inferior colliculus and thalamus, which are essential for this process.Guest:Edward Bartlett, Professor of Professor of Biological Sciences and Biomedical Engineering, Purdue UniversityParticipating:Marina Silveira, Department of Neuroscience, Developmental and Regenerative Biology, UT San AntonioRosy Carrasco, Department of Neuroscience, Developmental and Regenerative Biology, UT San AntonioHost:Charles Wilson, Department of Neuroscience, Developmental and Regenerative Biology, UT San AntonioThanks to James Tepper for original music
