The harmonic organization of auditory cortex [PDF]

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2010
A fundamental structure of sounds encountered in the natural environment is the harmonicity. Harmonicity is an essential component of music found in all cultures. It is also a unique feature of vocal communication sounds such as human speech and animal vocalizations. Harmonics in sounds are produced by a variety of acoustic generators and reflectors in

Auditory cortex basal activity modulates cochlear responses in chinchillas. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: The auditory efferent system has unique neuroanatomical pathways that connect the cerebral cortex with sensory receptor cells. Pyramidal neurons located in layers V and VI of the primary auditory cortex constitute descending projections to ...

Functional asymmetry for auditory processing in human primary auditory cortex [PDF]

, 2003
Structural asymmetries in the supratemporal plane of the human brain are often cited as the anatomical basis for the lateralization of language predominantly to the left hemisphere.

Patterns of Unilateral and Bilateral Projections From Layers 5 and 6 of the Auditory Cortex to the Inferior Colliculus in Mouse

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2021
The auditory cortex sends massive projections to the inferior colliculus, but the organization of this pathway is not yet well understood. Previous work has shown that the corticocollicular projection emanates from both layers 5 and 6 of the auditory ...

Relationships between human auditory cortical structure and function [PDF]

, 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

Frontiers 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.

Cross-Modal Functional Reorganization of Visual and Auditory Cortex in Adult Cochlear Implant Users Identified with fNIRS

Neural Plasticity, 2016
Cochlear implant (CI) users show higher auditory-evoked activations in visual cortex and higher visual-evoked activation in auditory cortex compared to normal hearing (NH) controls, reflecting functional reorganization of both visual and auditory ...

Representation of Reward Feedback in Primate Auditory Cortex

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2011
It is well established that auditory cortex is plastic on different time scales and that this plasticity is driven by the reinforcement that is used to motivate subjects to learn or to perform an auditory task.

Seeing is believing: neural representations of visual stimuli in human auditory cortex correlate with illusory auditory perceptions. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
In interpersonal communication, the listener can often see as well as hear the speaker. Visual stimuli can subtly change a listener's auditory perception, as in the McGurk illusion, in which perception of a phoneme's auditory identity is changed by a ...

The Auditory Cortex in Schizophrenia [PDF]

Biological Psychiatry, 2007
Sweet et al have recently shown that the somal volume of pyramidal cells is reduced in layer 3 of the auditory cortex in schizophrenic patients (Sweet et al 2004; Sweet et al 2003). In this issue of Biological Psychiatry, they report new data showing that the density of axon terminals is also significantly decreased in the same layer (Sweet et al 2006).
