Auditory cortex controls sound-driven innate defense behaviour through corticofugal projections to inferior colliculus

Nature Communications, 2015
Defense against environmental threats is essential for animal survival. However, the neural circuits responsible for transforming unconditioned sensory stimuli and generating defensive behaviours remain largely unclear.

Post-training load-related changes of auditory working memory: An EEG study [PDF]

, 2020
Working memory (WM) refers to the temporary retention and manipulation of information, and its capacity is highly susceptible to training. Yet, the neural mechanisms that allow for increased performance under demanding conditions are not fully understood.

Hearing through your eyes: neural basis of audiovisual cross-activation, revealed by transcranial alternating current stimulation [PDF]

, 2019
Some people experience auditory sensations when seeing visual flashes or movements. This prevalent synaesthesia-like ‘visual-evoked auditory response’ (vEAR) could result either from over-exuberant cross-activation between brain areas, and/or reduced ...

Cracking the Valence Code: Patterned Facial Kinematics and Neural Signatures of Emotional Expressions in Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An AI‐powered system decodes emotional valence from mouse facial expressions, identifying ear dynamics as key indicators. By integrating facial kinematics with synchronized neural recordings, this approach establishes a direct link between behavior and brain activity, advancing automated emotion recognition in animal models.

The Corticofugal Effects of Auditory Cortex Microstimulation on Auditory Nerve and Superior Olivary Complex Responses Are Mediated via Alpha-9 Nicotinic Receptor Subunit.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Background and objectiveThe auditory efferent system is a complex network of descending pathways, which mainly originate in the primary auditory cortex and are directed to several auditory subcortical nuclei.

Regular versus Irregular Exercise Differentially Modulates Hippocampal‐Hepatic Acetylcholine Flux to Coordinate Fear Memory Extinction and Liver Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ma et al. report the hippocampal and hepatic acetylcholine (ACh) levels are differently modulated by regular versus irregular exercise, which contributes to coordinate hippocampal astrocyte activity and hepatic FBXL6high neutrophil recruitment. This ACh‐modulated brain‐liver circuit links the effects of exercise on fear memory extinction and liver ...

Right hemispheric dominance of auditory effects evoked by electrical cortical stimulation of Heschl's gyrus and planum temporale

Brain Stimulation
Background: Hemispheric asymmetry is a fundamental feature of the human brain. Numerous studies on auditory functions have shown both structural and functional differences between the left and right auditory cortex in the superior temporal gyrus (STG ...

Functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to assess cognitive function in infants in rural Africa [PDF]

, 2011
Cortical mapping of cognitive function during infancy is poorly understood in low-income countries due to the lack of transportable neuroimaging methods. We have successfully piloted functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) as a neuroimaging tool in
