It has been well documented that the auditory system in the superior temporal cortex is responsible for processing basic auditory sound features, such as sound frequency and intensity, while the prefrontal cortex is involved in higher-order auditory ...

Inhibition in the auditory cortex
The auditory system provides us with extremely rich and precise information about the outside world. Once a sound reaches our ears, the acoustic information it carries travels from the cochlea all the way to the auditory cortex, where its complexity and nuances are integrated.

Recognizing other people, animals or objects by the sound they make is something that most of us take for granted. In fact, this ability relies on a series of rich and complex processes that begin when sounds are transduced into electrical signals by the exquisitely sensitive hair cell receptors that lie inside the cochlea of the inner ear.

The effect of systemic administration of salicylate on the auditory cortex of guinea pigs
Objective To investigate the effect of systemic administration of salicylate as a tinnitus inducing drug in the auditory cortex of guinea pigs. Methods Extracellular recording of spikes of the primary auditory cortex and dorsocaudal areas in healthy male

Transient human auditory cortex activation during volitional attention shifting. [PDF]
While strong activation of auditory cortex is generally found for exogenous orienting of attention, endogenous, intra-modal shifting of auditory attention has not yet been demonstrated to evoke transient activation of the auditory cortex.

Differential roles of auditory and visual cortex for sensory detection in mice
Sensory cortex encompasses the regions of the cerebral cortex that receive primary sensory inputs and is crucial for conscious sensory perception in humans. Yet, some forms of perception are possible without sensory cortex.

Maps of the Auditory Cortex [PDF]
One of the fundamental properties of the mammalian brain is that sensory regions of cortex are formed of multiple, functionally specialized cortical field maps (CFMs). Each CFM comprises two orthogonal topographical representations, reflecting two essential aspects of sensory space.

Background: Auditory hallucinations are prevalent across the major psychotic disorders, but their underlying mechanism is poorly understood. Limited prior work supports a hypothesis of altered auditory/language brain systems.

The distributed auditory cortex [PDF]
A synthesis of cat auditory cortex (AC) organization is presented in which the extrinsic and intrinsic connections interact to derive a unified profile of the auditory stream and use it to direct and modify cortical and subcortical information flow. Thus, the thalamocortical input provides essential sensory information about peripheral stimulus events,

Representations in auditory cortex [PDF]
How does auditory cortex represent auditory stimuli, and how do these representations contribute to behavior? Recent experimental evidence suggests that activity in auditory cortex consists of sparse and highly synchronized volleys of activity, observed both in anesthetized and awake animals. Many neurons are capable of remarkably precise activity with
