OxTalks is Changing
            
                On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
            
            
                There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.

Neural Entrainment or Rhythmic Evoked Responses - can we tell them apart?
    
	Over the past years, there has been growing evidence that the brain entrains to rhythms in the environment and that this entrainment facilitates sensory processing and attentional selection. However, rhythmic stimuli also produce rhythmic evoked responses in sensory cortices, posing a challenge for demonstrating “purely endogenous” neural entrainment. In this talk I will survey several recent MEG and EEG studies in which we attempt to disentangle bottom-up auditory evoked responses from evidence of neural entrainment to simple tones as well as complex stimuli such as speech and music.
