Linguistic phrases are tracked in sentences even though there is no one-to-one acoustic
phrase marker in the physical signal. This phenomenon suggests an automatic tracking of …

Beat perception and synchronization within 120 to 140 beats/min (BPM) are common in
humans and frequently used in music composition. Why beat synchronization is uncommon …

Recent research has established that cortical activity “tracks” the presentation rate of
syntactic phrases in continuous speech, even though phrases are abstract units that do not …

This mini review is aimed at a clinician-scientist seeking to understand the role of
oscillations in neural processing and their functional relevance in speech and music …

When we attentively listen to an individual's speech, our brain activity dynamically aligns to
the incoming acoustic input at multiple timescales. Although this systematic alignment …

From a brain's-eye-view, when a stimulus occurs and what it is are interrelated aspects of
interpreting the perceptual world. Yet in practice, the putative perceptual inferences about …

Sentences contain structure that determines their meaning beyond that of individual words.
An influential study by Ding and colleagues (2016) used frequency tagging of phrases and …

Time is of the essence in how neural codes, synchronies, and oscillations might function in
encoding, representation, transmission, integration, storage, and retrieval of information in …

Musical training enhances auditory-motor cortex coupling, which in turn facilitates music and
speech perception. How tightly the temporal processing of music and speech are intertwined …

Chunking language has been proposed to be vital for comprehension enabling the
extraction of meaning from a continuous stream of speech. However, neurocognitive …
