The brain processes an enormous amount of sensory input into useful information. This is achieved by increasingly complex representations - from photons reaching our eyes, to simple features like orientation, all the way to recognition of a familiar face.

Thanks for the opportunity to talk about fish brains live on air @3RRRFM and @einstein_agogo! The interviews with all 21 students are now available to stream if you missed them live (link in tweet below, I'm number 19!) 🐟🧠🎶
Dr Shane Huntington OAM@DrShaneRRR
Today we had an amazing group of 21 PhD students in the studio as part of #20phds20mins on @einstein_agogo on @3RRRFM - Fantastic communicators! If you missed the broadcast you can hear them here: rrr.org.au/explore/progra…

Stoked to be talking about my PhD on 3RRR radio this Sunday! You can stream it online if you're not based in Melbourne. I'll be talking about how I use fish to understand how our brains process sounds 🐟🧠🎶
