Hi all , a friend of mine brought this cool article to my attention.. i thought it was interesting enough to share it with the ATS community 
Here's an excerpt :
Scientists from Maastricht University have developed a method to look into the brain of a person and read out who has spoken to him or her and what
was said. With the help of neuroimaging and data mining techniques the researchers mapped the brain activity associated with the recognition of speech
sounds and voices. In their Science article "'Who' is Saying 'What'? Brain-Based Decoding of Human Voice and Speech," the four authors
demonstrate that speech sounds and voices can be identified by means of a unique 'neural fingerprint' in the listener's brain. In the future this
new knowledge could be used to improve computer systems for automatic speech and speaker recognition.

Looks like a nice tool for interrogators
