Brain SciencesTinnitus is a common phantom auditory percept believed to be related to plastic changes in the brain due to hearing loss. However, tinnitus can also occur in the absence of any clinical hearing loss.

Frontiers in Psychology, 2017 Here we show that, using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) blood-oxygen level dependent (BOLD) responses in human primary auditory cortex, it is possible to reconstruct the sequence of tones that a person has been listening to over time. First,

Periodotopy in the gerbil inferior colliculus: local clustering rather than a gradient map
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2015 Periodicities in sound waveforms are widespread, and shape important perceptual attributes of sound including rhythm and pitch. Previous studies have indicated that, in the inferior colliculus, a key processing stage in the auditory midbrain, neurons ...

Complexity of frequency receptive fields predicts tonotopic variability across species
eLife, 2020 Primary cortical areas contain maps of sensory features, including sound frequency in primary auditory cortex (A1). Two-photon calcium imaging in mice has confirmed the presence of these global tonotopic maps, while uncovering an unexpected local ...

Speech Recognition with Cochlea‐Inspired In‐Sensor Computing
Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.Traditional speech recognition methods rely on software‐based feature extraction that introduces latency and high energy costs, making them unsuitable for low‐power devices. A proof‐of‐concept demonstration is provided of a bioinspired tonotopic sensor for speech recognition that mimics the human cochlea, using a spiral‐shaped elastic metamaterial. The

Frequency-dependent auditory space representation in the human planum temporale
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) findings suggest that a part of the planum temporale (PT) is involved in representing spatial properties of acoustic information.

Autism Research, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Auditory hypersensitivity is a prominent symptom in Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most prevalent monogenic cause of autism and intellectual disability. FXS arises through the loss of the protein encoded by the FMR1 (Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein 1) gene, FMRP, required for normal neural circuit excitability.

Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract The inferior colliculus (IC) is a central hub for auditory information processing that receives widespread convergent projections. The IC comprises three main subdivisions: the central nucleus of the IC (ICC), the dorsal cortex (DC), and the lateral cortex (LC). While the ICC receives primarily ascending auditory information, DC and LC receive

Frontiers in Psychology, 2016 Speech sound perception is one of the most fascinating tasks performed by the human brain. It involves a mapping from continuous acoustic waveforms onto the discrete phonological units computed to store words in the mental lexicon.

A Data‐Limit Account of Release From Masking During Speech‐on‐Speech Listening
Cognitive Science, Volume 50, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract Speech‐on‐speech listening involves selectively attending to a target talker while ignoring a simultaneous competing talker. Spatially separating the talkers improves performance, a phenomenon known as spatial release from masking (spatial RM).
