The asymmetric auditory cortex

Nature Human Behaviour, 2019
Which side of the brain does what in speech and language processing is a debate that has engaged and divided the neuroscientific community for more than a century. A new study by Flinker et al. provides a more nuanced interpretation of how the left and right hemispheres of the brain process acoustic information important for speech processing.

Anatomical Organization of the Auditory Cortex

Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 2008
The identification of areas that contribute to auditory processing in the human cerebral cortex has been the subject of sporadic investigation for more than one century. Several anatomical schemas have been advanced, but a standard model has not been adopted by researchers in the field.

Auditory cortex stimulation for tinnitus [PDF]

, 2007
Functional imaging techniques have demonstrated a relationship between the intensity of tinnitus and the degree of reorganization of the primary auditory cortex. Studies in experimental animals and humans have revealed that tinnitus is associated with a synchronized hyperactivity in the auditory cortex and proposed that the underlying ...

Magnetoencephalography for research of auditory cortex

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2008
The results could indicate that, during phylogeny and human ontogeny, the central nervous system has enhanced the speech activity from any other activity even though other frequencies could be relevant for survival.People of all ages can experience alterations of auditory perception that progressively increase with aging.

Origin of Auditory Cortex

1992
All mammals, including the egg-laying mono-tremes, possess an auditory cortex—that is, an auditory area in their cerebral neocortex. In contrast, no reptile or bird possesses even neocortex itself let alone an auditory area within it. Therefore, the question of the evolutionary origin of auditory cortex is entangled in the larger question of the origin

Auditory-visual integration in fields of the auditory cortex

Hearing Research, 2017
While multimodal interactions have been known to exist in the early sensory cortices, the response properties and spatiotemporal organization of these interactions are poorly understood. To elucidate the characteristics of multimodal sensory interactions in the cerebral cortex, neuronal responses to visual stimuli with or without auditory stimuli were ...

Lateralization of auditory-cortex functions

Brain Research Reviews, 2003
In the present review, we summarize the most recent findings and current views about the structural and functional basis of human brain lateralization in the auditory modality. Main emphasis is given to hemodynamic and electromagnetic data of healthy adult participants with regard to music- vs. speech-sound encoding.

Development of the Auditory Cortex

2010
Neuronal development is a progressive series of constructive and reductive events including division of progenitors, their accretion at specific locations, differentiation into neuronal and glial subtypes, and circuit refinement. The final goal is to establish adaptive neuronal circuits controlling the behavior of the organism. The complex architecture

Functional architecture of auditory cortex

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2002
Three complementary approaches demonstrate new types of organization in rodent, feline and primate auditory cortex, as well as differences in processing between auditory and visual cortex. First, connectional work reveals patterns of thalamocortical and corticocortical input unique to the auditory cortex.
