Category-specific responses to faces and objects in primate auditory cortex

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2008
Auditory and visual signals often occur together, and the two sensory channels are known to infl uence each other to facilitate perception. The neural basis of this integration is not well understood, although other forms of multisensory infl uences have

A Corticothalamic Circuit Model for Sound Identification in Complex Scenes [PDF]

, 2011
The identification of the sound sources present in the environment is essential for the survival of many animals. However, these sounds are not presented in isolation, as natural scenes consist of a superposition of sounds originating from multiple ...

Subcortical circuits mediate communication between primary sensory cortical areas in mice

Nature Communications, 2021
In the primary auditory cortex, visual or tactile stimuli can modulate acoustically-driven activity. Here, the authors show that circuits linking the primary somatosensory cortex to both the auditory midbrain and thalamus allow tactile inputs to modulate

Auditory detection is modulated by theta phase of silent lip movements

Current Research in Neurobiology, 2021
Audiovisual speech perception relies, among other things, on our expertise to map a speaker's lip movements with speech sounds. This multimodal matching is facilitated by salient syllable features that align lip movements and acoustic envelope signals in

Auditory motion direction encoding in auditory cortex and high-level visual cortex

, 2011
The aim of this functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study was to identify human brain areas that are sensitive to the direction of auditory motion.

Functional connectivity and gray matter deficits within the auditory attention circuit in first-episode psychosis

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2023
BackgroundSelective attention deficits in first episode of psychosis (FEP) can be indexed by impaired attentional modulation of auditory M100. It is unknown if the pathophysiology underlying this deficit is restricted to auditory cortex or involves a ...

Age differences in fMRI adaptation for sound identity and location [PDF]

, 2011
We explored age differences in auditory perception by measuring fMRI adaptation of brain activity to repetitions of sound identity (what) and location (where), using meaningful environmental sounds.

Recent advances in understanding the auditory cortex [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

F1000Research, 2018
Our ability to make sense of the auditory world results from neural processing that begins in the ear, goes through multiple subcortical areas, and continues in the cortex.

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 ...

Echoes of the spoken past: how auditory cortex hears context during speech perception. [PDF]

, 2014
What do we hear when someone speaks and what does auditory cortex (AC) do with that sound? Given how meaningful speech is, it might be hypothesized that AC is most active when other people talk so that their productions get decoded.
