Sensory systems integrate multiple stimulus features to generate coherent percepts.
Spectral surround suppression, the phenomenon by which sound-evoked responses of …

Noise correlations (rnoise) between neurons can affect a neural population's discrimination
capacity, even without changes in mean firing rates of neurons. rnoise, the degree to which …

The effect of attention on single neuron responses in the auditory system is unresolved. We
found that when monkeys discriminated temporally amplitude modulated (AM) from …

Recent evidence is reshaping the view of primary auditory cortex (A1) from a unisensory
area to one more involved in dynamically integrating multisensory-and task-related …

Natural sounds can be characterised by their spectral content and temporal modulation, but
how the brain is organized to analyse these two critical sound dimensions remains …

There is strong neurophysiological evidence suggesting that processing of speech signals
in the brain happens along parallel paths which encode complementary information in the …

The ability to separate background noise from relevant acoustic signals is essential for
appropriate sound-driven behavior in natural environments. Examples of this separation are …

Mammals perceive a wide range of temporal cues in natural sounds, and the auditory cortex
is essential for their detection and discrimination. The rat primary (A1), ventral (VAF), and …

We recorded from middle lateral belt (ML) and primary (A1) auditory cortical neurons while
animals discriminated amplitude-modulated (AM) sounds and also while they sat passively …

A key question in auditory neuroscience is to what extent are brain regions functionally
specialized for processing specific sound features, such as location and identity. In auditory …
