Holographic neuronal stimulation shows that auditory cortex neurons with shared functional properties rapidly adjust their responses during sensory processing, revealing a circuit-level mechanism that ...

Researchers have shown that the brain’s primary auditory cortex is more responsive to human vocalizations associated with positive emotions and coming from our left side than to any other kind of ...

Generating a tune in your thoughts involves a lot of cognitive skills that can be developed, explain our readers ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Changes in arousal influence cortical sensory representations, but the synaptic mechanisms underlying arousal-dependent modulation of cortical ...

Despite its ubiquitous use in medicine, and extensive knowledge of its molecular and cellular effects, how anesthesia induces loss of consciousness (LOC) and affects sensory processing remains poorly ...

Music is a uniquely human activity, but much remains unknown about how it is perceived in the human brain and its computational basis. A new study indicates that not only does the human auditory ...

When we are engaged in a task, our brain's auditory system changes how it works. One of the main auditory centers of the brain, the auditory cortex, is filled with neural activity that is not ...
