The streams of sounds we typically attend to abound in acoustic regularities. Neural
entrainment is seen as an important mechanism that the listening brain exploits to attune to …

Brain function involves oscillations at various frequencies. This could imply that perception
and cognition operate periodically, as a succession of cycles mirroring the underlying …

Neural oscillations subserve a broad range of functions in speech processing and language
comprehension. On the one hand, speech contains—somewhat—repetitive trains of air …

During online speech processing, our brain tracks the acoustic fluctuations in speech at
different timescales. Previous research has focused on generic timescales (for example …

Time and space are the basic building blocks of nature. As a unique existent in nature, our
brain exists in time and takes up space. The brain's activity itself also constitutes and …

Research on speech processing is often focused on a phenomenon termed “entrainment”,
whereby the cortex shadows rhythmic acoustic information with oscillatory activity …

Speech is crucial for communication in everyday life. Speech-brain entrainment, the
alignment of neural activity to the slow temporal fluctuations (envelope) of acoustic speech …

Sensory processing must be sensitive enough to encode faint signals near the noise floor
but selective enough to differentiate between similar stimuli. Here we describe a layer 6 …

" Introduction There are numerous neurobiological models of language, ranging from those
concerned with speech perception, white matter structure, and the function of dorsal and …

The entrainment of slow rhythmic auditory cortical activity to the temporal regularities in
speech is considered to be a central mechanism underlying auditory perception. Previous …
