Along with clustering analyses that show stimulus encoding in anatomically distributed populations, these results demonstrate that feed-forward, feed-back, and distributed processing mechanisms underlie visual word recognition. Second, I describe the development of an artificial language task designed to characterize the neural mechanisms of auditory word segmentation. The task is designed in three phases to probe how the brain tracks distributional regularity and the neural mechanisms of word segmentation with and without lexical access. Taken together, this work expands our understanding of the neural mechanisms of language processing using human intracranial neurophysiology.

Female rainbow trout and coho salmon broodstock at two hatcheries were screened for F. psychrophilum by ELISA and a nested PCR. Progeny from 10 broodstock (five from each facility) exhibiting graded levels of infection were monitored through early life stages for F. psychrophilum. Prevalence in progeny was positively correlated to broodstock kidney ELISA values for coho salmon. These results support broodstock screening as a potential tool for predicting BCWD outbreaks in progeny.
