Background noise strongly penalizes auditory perception of speech in humans or
vocalizations in animals. Despite this, auditory neurons are still able to detect …

Humans and animals maintain accurate sound discrimination in the presence of loud
sources of background noise. It is commonly assumed that this ability relies on the …

In everyday listening, the sounds from sources we seek to understand are frequently
embedded in background noise, which often profoundly alters auditory nerve spiking. To …

In natural listening conditions, many sounds must be detected and identified in the context of
competing sound sources, which function as background noise. Traditionally, noise is …

Robust auditory perception plays a pivotal function for processing behaviorally relevant
sounds, particularly with distractions from the environment. The neuronal coding enabling …

Humans and animals can reliably perceive behaviorally relevant sounds in noisy and
reverberant environments, yet the neural mechanisms behind this phenomenon are largely …

Speech perception depends on the auditory system's ability to extract relevant acoustic
features from competing background noise. Despite widespread acknowledgement that …

To advance our understanding of the biological basis of speech‐in‐noise perception, we
investigated the effects of background noise on both subcortical‐and cortical‐evoked …

Humans and animals constantly face challenging acoustic environments, such as various
background noises, that impair the detection, discrimination and identification of …

Many individuals with seemingly normal hearing abilities struggle to understand speech in
noisy backgrounds. To understand why this might be the case, we investigated the neural …
