Anatomical pathways for auditory memory II: information from rostral superior temporal gyrus to dorsolateral temporal pole and medial temporal cortex [PDF]
Auditory recognition memory in non-human primates differs from recognition memory in other sensory systems. Monkeys learn the rule for visual and tactile delayed matching-to-sample within a few sessions, and then show one-trial recognition memory lasting

The role of auditory cortex in the formation of auditory streams [PDF]
Auditory streaming refers to the perceptual parsing of acoustic sequences into "streams", which makes it possible for a listener to follow the sounds from a given source amidst other sounds. Streaming is currently regarded as an important function of the auditory system in both humans and animals, crucial for survival in environments that typically ...

Suppressing sensorimotor activity modulates the discrimination of auditory emotions but not speaker identity [PDF]
Our ability to recognize the emotions of others is a crucial feature of human social cognition. Functional neuroimaging studies indicate that activity in sensorimotor cortices is evoked during the perception of emotion.

Tinnitus intensity dependent gamma oscillations of the contralateral auditory cortex.
BackgroundNon-pulsatile tinnitus is considered a subjective auditory phantom phenomenon present in 10 to 15% of the population. Tinnitus as a phantom phenomenon is related to hyperactivity and reorganization of the auditory cortex. Magnetoencephalography

The state of tranquility: Subjective perception is shaped by contextual modulation of auditory connectivity [PDF]
In this study, we investigated brain mechanisms for the generation of subjective experience from objective sensory inputs. Our experimental construct was subjective tranquility.

Corticofugal modulation of peripheral auditory responses
The auditory efferent system originates in the auditory cortex and projects to the medial geniculate body, inferior colliculus, cochlear nucleus and superior olivary complex reaching the cochlea through olivocochlear fibers.

An fMRI Study of Audiovisual Speech Perception Reveals Multisensory Interactions in Auditory Cortex. [PDF]
Research on the neural basis of speech-reading implicates a network of auditory language regions involving inferior frontal cortex, premotor cortex and sites along superior temporal cortex.

Extensive Tonotopic Mapping across Auditory Cortex Is recapitulated by spectrally directed attention and systematically related to Cortical Myeloarchitecture [PDF]
Auditory selective attention is vital in natural soundscapes. But, it is unclear how attentional focus on the primary dimension of auditory representation - acoustic frequency - might modulate basic auditory functional topography during active listening.

We evaluated to what extent the influence of eye position in the auditory pathway of primates can be described as a gain field. We compared single unit activity in the inferior colliculus (IC), core auditory cortex (A1) and the caudomedial belt (CM ...

The Auditory Cortex in Schizophrenia [PDF]
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).
