Dear members of the ILCB,
We have just passed an important step, our mid-term GoNoGo evaluation in front of an international jury in Paris. The results are still unknown, but we all had the impression that the interview went really well. Many thanks to all of you who acknowledged the support of the ILCB in their publications, who gave us feedback and ideas and who sent invaluable project sheets, articles, figures…
Special thanks go to Sonja Kotz, from the international advisory board, who came all the way from Maastricht to support us, to Marieke Longcamp and Pascal Belin who presented the two pillars of the ILCB, training and research, and to Denis Bertin who represented our institutional partners and the A*Midex steering committee.
Now that this is done, let’s pursue our efforts to tackle fundamental unanswered questions about language and communication, as we wrote in our initial application. For this, it might be useful to reactivate the cross-cutting topics: some of them could be merged and others created from scratch. The next retreat could serve to think about the big unanswered questions we would like to address in the next few years. So, do not hesitate to talk to colleagues at our various events (lunch talks etc.) and please let us know what the most exciting cross-cutting topic would be for you!
Best wishes,
Johannes |

Functionally homologous representation of vocalizations in the auditory cortex of humans and macaques |
- Macaques and humans show voice-selective anterior temporal voice areas (aTVA)
- Similar representation of sounds are present in primary auditory cortex of both species
- Representational similarity analysis (RSA) reveals that aTVAs categorize conspecific vocalizations apart from other sounds
- There is a functional homology in the high-level auditory cortex of humans and macaques
