For individuals with autism spectrum disorder or 'ASD'the ability to accurately process and
interpret auditory information is often difficult. Here we review behavioural …

To follow an ever-changing auditory scene, the auditory brain is continuously creating a
representation of the past to form expectations about the future. Unexpected events will …

An extensive corticofugal system extends from the auditory cortex toward subcortical nuclei
along the auditory pathway. Corticofugal influences reach even into the inner ear via the …

The corticothalamic (CT) pathways emanate from either Layer 5 (L5) or 6 (L6) of the
neocortex and largely outnumber the ascending, thalamocortical pathways. The CT …

Despite numerous neuroimaging studies, the tonotopic organization in human auditory
cortex is not yet unambiguously established. In this functional magnetic resonance imaging …

An animal's survival may depend on detecting new events or objects in its environment, and
it is likely that the brain has evolved specific mechanisms to detect such changes. In sensory …

Auditory processing disorder (APD) describes a mixed and poorly understood listening
problem characterised by poor speech perception, especially in challenging environments …

The function of the profuse descending innervation from the auditory cortex is largely
unknown; however, recent studies have demonstrated that focal stimulation of auditory …

We investigated auditory perception and cognitive processing in individuals with chronic
tinnitus or hearing loss using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Our …

In the auditory brain, some populations of neurons exhibit stimulus-specific adaptation
(SSA), whereby they adapt to frequently occurring stimuli but retain sensitivity to stimuli that …
