Direct structural connections between auditory and visual motion-selective regions in humans

A Gurtubay-Antolin, C Battal, C Maffei… - Journal of …, 2021 - Soc Neuroscience
In humans, the occipital middle-temporal region (hMT+/V5) specializes in the processing of
visual motion, while the planum temporale (hPT) specializes in auditory motion processing …

[PDF][PDF] Shared representation of visual and auditory motion directions in the human middle-temporal cortex

M Rezk, S Cattoir, C Battal, V Occelli, S Mattioni… - Current Biology, 2020 - cell.com
The human occipito-temporal region hMT+/V5 is well known for processing visual motion
direction. Here, we demonstrate that hMT+/V5 also represents the direction of auditory …

Structural and functional network-level reorganization in the coding of auditory motion directions and sound source locations in the absence of vision

C Battal, A Gurtubay-Antolin, M Rezk… - Journal of …, 2022 - Soc Neuroscience
hMT+/V5 is a region in the middle occipitotemporal cortex that responds preferentially to
visual motion in sighted people. In cases of early visual deprivation, hMT+/V5 enhances its …

[HTML][HTML] Effects of visual experience on the human MT+ functional connectivity networks: an fMRI study of motion perception in sighted and congenitally blind …

L Sani, E Ricciardi, C Gentili, N Vanello… - Frontiers in systems …, 2010 - frontiersin.org
Human middle temporal complex (hMT+) responds also to the perception of non-visual
motion in both sighted and early blind individuals, indicating a supramodal organization …

Representation of auditory motion directions and sound source locations in the human planum temporale

C Battal, M Rezk, S Mattioni, J Vadlamudi… - Journal of …, 2019 - Soc Neuroscience
The ability to compute the location and direction of sounds is a crucial perceptual skill to
efficiently interact with dynamic environments. How the human brain implements spatial …

Auditory motion direction encoding in auditory cortex and high‐level visual cortex

A Alink, F Euler, N Kriegeskorte, W Singer… - Human brain …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
The aim of this functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study was to identify human
brain areas that are sensitive to the direction of auditory motion. Such directional sensitivity …

Natural, metaphoric, and linguistic auditory direction signals have distinct influences on visual motion processing

S Sadaghiani, JX Maier, U Noppeney - Journal of Neuroscience, 2009 - Soc Neuroscience
To interact with our dynamic environment, the brain merges motion information from auditory
and visual senses. However, not only “natural” auditory MOTION, but also “metaphoric” …

Decoding the direction of auditory motion in blind humans

T Wolbers, P Zahorik, NA Giudice - neuroimage, 2011 - Elsevier
Accurate processing of nonvisual stimuli is fundamental to humans with visual impairments.
In this population, moving sounds activate an occipito-temporal region thought to …

[PDF][PDF] A higher order motion region in human inferior parietal lobule: evidence from fMRI

KG Claeys, DT Lindsey, E De Schutter, GA Orban - Neuron, 2003 - cell.com
The proposal that motion is processed by multiple mechanisms in the human brain has
received little anatomical support so far. Here, we compared higher-and lower-level motion …

Auditory motion in the sighted and blind: Early visual deprivation triggers a large-scale imbalance between auditory and “visual” brain regions

G Dormal, M Rezk, E Yakobov, F Lepore, O Collignon - Neuroimage, 2016 - Elsevier
How early blindness reorganizes the brain circuitry that supports auditory motion processing
remains controversial. We used fMRI to characterize brain responses to in-depth, laterally …
