Discovery of a lipid synthesising organ in the auditory system of an insect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Weta possess typical Ensifera ears. Each ear comprises three functional parts: two equally sized tympanal membranes, an underlying system of modified tracheal chambers, and the auditory sensory organ, the crista acustica.

Comparison of gain-like properties of eye position signals in inferior colliculus versus auditory cortex of primates

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2010
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 ...

Partial inactivation of songbird auditory cortex impairs both tempo and pitch discrimination

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2023
Neuronal tuning for spectral and temporal features has been studied extensively in the auditory system. In the auditory cortex, diverse combinations of spectral and temporal tuning have been found, but how specific feature tuning contributes to the ...

Somatosensory tinnitus: current evidence and future perspectives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In some individuals, tinnitus can be modulated by specific maneuvers of the temporomandibular joint, head and neck, eyes, and limbs. Neuroplasticity seems to play a central role in this capacity for modulation, suggesting that abnormal interactions ...

Differential activation of human core, non-core and auditory-related cortex during speech categorization tasks as revealed by intracranial recordings

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
Speech perception requires that sounds be transformed into speech-related objects with lexical and semantic meaning. It is unclear at what level in the auditory pathways this transformation emerges.

Change detection in children with autism: an auditory event-related fMRI study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Autism involves impairments in communication and social interaction, as well as high levels of repetitive, stereotypic and ritualistic behaviours, and extreme resistance to change. This latter dimension, whilst required for a diagnosis, has received less

Left Posterior Temporal Regions are Sensitive to Auditory Categorization [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2008
Abstract Recent studies suggest that the left superior temporal gyrus and sulcus (LSTG/S) play a role in speech perception, although the precise function of these areas remains unclear. Here, we test the hypothesis that regions in the LSTG/S play a role in the categorization of speech phonemes, irrespective of the acoustic properties of ...

Malignant Melanoma of the External Auditory Canal:A Rare Entity [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2018
Introduction: Although malignant melanomas (MM) are common in the head and neck region; primary malignant melanoma of the external auditory canal (EAC) is rare.

An Auditory Region in the Primate Insular Cortex Responding Preferentially to Vocal Communication Sounds

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2009
Human imaging studies implicate the insular cortex in processing complex sounds and vocal communication signals such as speech. In addition, lesions of the insula often manifest as deficits in sound or speech recognition (auditory agnosia) and speech ...
