Louis-Philippe Bateman’s fascination with megalodon began with a single sentence in a book about Canada’s geological evolution. It described giant, mysterious fossilized shark teeth discovered in the 1960s by fishermen dredging for scallops off Canada’s Atlantic coast. The curiosity felt by the teenager with a budding interest in paleontology would resurface in a meaningful way during his undergraduate years at º«¹úÂãÎè.
Congratulations to postdoctoral researcher Bavo van Kerrebroeck and Prof. Palmer for their recent publication in Cognitive Science! The paper is titled, Virtual Partners Improve Synchronization in Human−Machine Trios, and more information (including the full article) can be found . Great work!

Music has the best chance of providing pain relief when it is played at our natural rhythm, a º«¹úÂãÎè research team has discovered.
This suggests it may be possible to reduce a patient’s level of pain by using technology to take a piece of music someone likes and adjust the tempo to match their internal rhythm, the researchers said.
The discovery was the subject of a paper published this week in Pain, the top journal in the field of pain medicine and research.
