Frontal top-down signals increase coupling of auditory low-frequency oscillations to continuous speech in human listeners [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Humans show a remarkable ability to understand continuous speech even under adverse listening conditions. This ability critically relies on dynamically updated predictions of incoming sensory information, but exactly how top-down predictions improve ...

Genetic Reduction of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 Promotes Formation of Perineuronal Nets Around Parvalbumin-Expressing Interneurons and Normalizes Auditory Cortex Responses in Developing Fmr1 Knock-Out Mice

open access: yesCerebral Cortex, 2018
Abnormal sensory responses associated with Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) and autism spectrum disorders include hypersensitivity and impaired habituation to repeated stimuli.

Speech rhythms and multiplexed oscillatory sensory coding in the human brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cortical oscillations are likely candidates for segmentation and coding of continuous speech. Here, we monitored continuous speech processing with magnetoencephalography (MEG) to unravel the principles of speech segmentation and coding.

Hippocampal and auditory contributions to speech segmentation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Statistical learning has been proposed as a mechanism to structure and segment the continuous flow of information in several sensory modalities. Previous studies proposed that the medial temporal lobe, and in particular the hippocampus, may be crucial to parse the stream in the visual modality.

Neural Mechanisms of Selective Auditory Attention in Rats (Dissertation) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
How does attention modulate sensory representations? In order to probe the underlying neural mechanisms, we established a simple rodent model of modality-specific attention.

Neural distinctiveness declines with age in auditory cortex and is associated with auditory GABA levels

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2018
Neural activation patterns in the ventral visual cortex in response to different categories of visual stimuli (e.g., faces vs. houses) are less selective, or distinctive, in older adults than in younger adults, a phenomenon known as age-related neural ...

Relationships between human auditory cortical structure and function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The human auditory cortex comprises multiple areas, largely distributed across the supratemporal plane, but the precise number and configuration of auditory areas and their functional significance have not yet been clearly established.

Directed interactions between auditory and superior temporal cortices and their role in sensory integration

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2009
Recent studies using functional imaging and electrophysiology demonstrate that processes related to sensory integration are not restricted to higher association cortices but already occur in early sensory cortices, such as primary auditory cortex.

Differential rates of perinatal maturation of human primary and nonprimary auditory cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Primary and nonprimary cerebral cortex mature along different timescales; however, the differences between the rates of maturation of primary and nonprimary cortex are unclear.
