Auditory Connections and Functions of Prefrontal Cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
The functional auditory system extends from the ears to the frontal lobes with successively more complex functions occurring as one ascends the hierarchy of the nervous system.

Altered Brain Structure in an ATRX‐Deficient Mouse Model of Autism Spectrum Disorder

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mutations in the ATRX gene are a primary cause of alpha‐thalassemia intellectual disability X‐linked (ATRX) syndrome, which is characterized by intellectual disability, autism, and a range of brain structural abnormalities, including microcephaly.

Auditory neuroscience: the salience of looming sounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Sounds that move towards us have a greater biological salience than those that move away. Recent studies in human and non-human primates demonstrate a perceptual and behavioural priority for such looming sounds that is also reflected in an asymmetric ...

Transforming Brain Health With Neurotechnology Convergence (Part II): Intelligent Neurointervention Systems for Neurological Disorders

open access: yesBrain Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neurological disorders represent a critical domain within global health, necessitating advanced interventions to address complex pathologies such as tumors, functional disorders, and cerebrovascular diseases. Despite the proven benefits of early intervention, current treatment paradigms face significant challenges: (1) limited precision in ...

Eye Movement-Related Activity in and below the Macaque Auditory Cortex

open access: yesi-Perception, 2011
Recent studies have revealed influences of viewing scenes on sound processing and of gaze direction on sound location coding in the auditory cortex of the macaque monkey. We examined the spontaneous activity of auditory cortex in the darkness.

Silent reading of direct versus indirect speech activates voice-selective areas in the auditory cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In human communication, direct speech (e.g., Mary said: “I'm hungry”) is perceived to be more vivid than indirect speech (e.g., Mary said [that] she was hungry). However, for silent reading, the representational consequences of this distinction are still

Touch activates human auditory cortex

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2006
Vibrotactile stimuli can facilitate hearing, both in hearing-impaired and in normally hearing people. Accordingly, the sounds of hands exploring a surface contribute to the explorer's haptic percepts. As a possible brain basis of such phenomena, functional brain imaging has identified activations specific to audiotactile interaction in secondary ...

Continual decision‐making dynamics across biological organisms

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Decision‐making is a central function of adaptive behaviour in biological agents. However, strategies for adaptive decision‐making can vary substantially across species. Here, we aim to extend the comparative scope of decision‐making analyses to phylogenetically diverse organisms.

Enhanced peripheral visual processing in congenitally deaf humans is supported by multiple brain regions, including primary auditory cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
Brain reorganization associated with altered sensory experience clarifies the critical role of neuroplasticity in development. An example is enhanced peripheral visual processing associated with congenital deafness, but the neural systems supporting this

Developmental sensory experience balances cortical excitation and inhibition. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Early in life, neural circuits are highly susceptible to outside influences. The organization of the primary auditory cortex (A1) in particular is governed by acoustic experience during the critical period, an epoch near the beginning of postnatal ...
