Crossmodal plasticity is a textbook example of the ability of the brain to reorganize based on
use. We review evidence from the auditory system showing that such reorganization has …

We can sense an object's shape by vision or touch. Previous studies suggested that the
inferolateral occipitotemporal cortex (ILOTC) implements supramodal shape representations …

Neuroplasticity is a complex process that is heightened during time-sensitive periods of pre-
and postnatal brain development. It continues, albeit to a lesser extent, throughout …

Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) constitutes an urgent otologic emergency,
marked by a rapid decline of at least 30 dB across three consecutive frequencies within 72 …

Although it has been established that cross‐modal activations occur in the occipital cortex
during auditory processing among congenitally and early blind listeners, it remains …

The ventral occipito-temporal cortex (VOTC) reliably encodes auditory categories in people
born blind using a representational structure partially similar to the one found in vision …

Alpha oscillatory activity is thought to contribute to visual expectancy through the
engagement of task-relevant occipital regions. In early blindness, occipital alpha oscillations …

Over the past 40 years, the central goal of cognitive neuroscience has been to interpret
neural signals. To do so, it focuses on depicting commonalities between individuals at the …
