Perceptual awareness of near-threshold tones scales gradually with auditory cortex activity and pupil dilation Biological sciences; Neuroscience; Sensory neuroscience; Cognitive neuroscience

This paper in @cp-iscience.bsky.social led by Laura Doll and Alexander Gutschalk @uniheidelberg.bsky.social was published last year, but I'm highlighting it again b/c I think it's really cool and has all the things: M/EEG, pupillometry, awareness ratings, SDT.

On-site plant-wax biomarker analysis for assessing soil-organic-microbial degradation in archaeological contexts: A case study from Southern India Archeology; Biochemistry; Ecological biochemistry; Paleobiochemistry

🚨New paper alert, check it out in @cp-iscience.bsky.social!

Led by @gopesh.bsky.social, we looked at plant wax biomarkers from archaeological contexts with a focus on the Palaeolithic Jwalapuram site.

We show that it is important to integrate source-specific proxies with bulk soil proxies. 🏺🧪
