Novelty detection in an auditory oddball task on freely moving rats

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
The relative importance or saliency of sensory inputs depend on the animal’s environmental context and the behavioural responses to these same inputs can vary over time.

Rhythm, reading, and sound processing in the brain in preschool children

open access: yesnpj Science of Learning, 2021
A child’s success in school relies on their ability to quickly grasp language and reading skills, the foundations of which are acquired even before entering a formal classroom setting.

Athleticism and sex impact neural processing of sound

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Biology and experience both influence the auditory brain. Sex is one biological factor with pervasive effects on auditory processing. Females process sounds faster and more robustly than males.

Utility of red‐light ultrafast optogenetic stimulation of the auditory pathway

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2021
Optogenetic stimulation of spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in the ear provides a future alternative to electrical stimulation used in current cochlear implants. Here, we employed fast and very fast variants of the red‐light‐activated channelrhodopsin (ChR)

Is there an unmet medical need for improved hearing restoration?

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2022
Hearing impairment, the most prevalent sensory deficit, affects more than 466 million people worldwide (WHO). We presently lack causative treatment for the most common form, sensorineural hearing impairment; hearing aids and cochlear implants (CI) remain

Overloaded Adeno-Associated Virus as a Novel Gene Therapeutic Tool for Otoferlin-Related Deafness

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021
Hearing impairment is the most common sensory disorder in humans. So far, rehabilitation of profoundly deaf subjects relies on direct stimulation of the auditory nerve through cochlear implants.

An exploratory study of imagining sounds and “hearing” music in autism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) reportedly possess preserved or superior music-processing skills compared to their typically developing counterparts. We examined auditory imagery and earworms (tunes that get “stuck” in the head) in adults

Distortions of Subjective Time Perception Within and Across Senses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: The ability to estimate the passage of time is of fundamental importance for perceptual and cognitive processes. One experience of time is the perception of duration, which is not isomorphic to physical duration and can be distorted by a ...

Improving speech perception for hearing-impaired listeners using audio-to-tactile sensory substitution with multiple frequency channels

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Cochlear implants (CIs) have revolutionised treatment of hearing loss, but large populations globally cannot access them either because of disorders that prevent implantation or because they are expensive and require specialist surgery. Recent technology

Sensitivity to haptic sound-localisation cues

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Hearing aid and cochlear implant (CI) users often struggle to locate and segregate sounds. The dominant sound-localisation cues are time and intensity differences across the ears.
