It has become accepted in the neuroscience community that perception and performance
are quintessentially multisensory by nature. Using the full palette of modern brain imaging …

Vocal perception is particularly important for understanding a speaker's emotional state and
intentions because, unlike facial perception, it is relatively independent of speaker distance …

The auditory system of monkeys includes a large number of interconnected subcortical
nuclei and cortical areas. At subcortical levels, the structural components of the auditory …

The primary visual cortex (area 17 or V1) is not thought to receive input from nonvisual
extrastriate cortical areas. However, this has yet to be shown to be the case using sensitive …

Our brain integrates the information provided by the different sensory modalities into a
coherent percept, and recent studies suggest that this process is not restricted to higher …

Psychology is of interest to academics from many fields, as well as to the thousands of
academic and clinical psychologists and general public who can't help but be interested in …

Cortical processing of auditory stimuli involves large populations of neurons with distinct
individual response profiles. However, the functional organization and dynamics of local …

The primary auditory cortex (PAC) is central to human auditory abilities, yet its location in the
brain remains unclear. We measured the two largest tonotopic subfields of PAC (hA1 and …

In the social world, multiple sensory channels are used concurrently to facilitate
communication. Among human and nonhuman primates, faces and voices are the primary …

Since the early days of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), retinotopic mapping
emerged as a powerful and widely-accepted tool, allowing the identification of individual …
