Utility of TMS to understand the neurobiology of speech

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
According to a traditional view, speech perception and production are processed largely separately in sensory and motor brain areas. Recent psycholinguistic and neuroimaging studies provide novel evidence that the sensory and motor systems dynamically ...

Resonant Neural Dynamics of Speech Perception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
What is the neural representation of a speech code as it evolves in time? How do listeners integrate temporally distributed phonemic information across hundreds of milliseconds, even backwards in time, into coherent representations of syllables and words?

The Self-Organization of Speech Sounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The speech code is a vehicle of language: it defines a set of forms used by a community to carry information. Such a code is necessary to support the linguistic interactions that allow humans to communicate. How then may a speech code be formed prior to
