We meta-analyzed 115 functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies reporting
auditory-cortex (AC) coordinates for activations related to active and passive processing of …

Pitch perception is crucial for vocal communication, music perception, and auditory object
processing in a complex acoustic environment. How pitch is represented in the cerebral …

Pitch is a defining perceptual property of many real-world sounds, including music and
speech. Classically, theories of pitch perception have differentiated between temporal and …

The capacity of auditory cortex on Heschl's gyrus (HG) to encode repetitive transients was
studied in human patients undergoing surgical evaluation for medically intractable epilepsy …

Lateral Heschl's gyrus (HG), a subdivision of the human auditory cortex, is commonly
believed to represent a general “pitch center,” responding selectively to the pitch of sounds …

Whether music was an evolutionary adaptation that conferred survival advantages or a
cultural creation has generated much debate. Consistent with an evolutionary hypothesis …

Neuroimaging studies have provided important information regarding how and where pitch
is coded and processed in the human brain. Recordings of the frequency-following …

The aim of the current study was to measure the brain's response to auditory motion using
electroencephalography (EEG) to gain insight into the mechanisms by which hemispheric …

Primate studies suggest the auditory cortex is organized in at least two anatomically and
functionally separate pathways: a ventral pathway specializing in object recognition and a …

A fundamental structure of sounds encountered in the natural environment is the
harmonicity. Harmonicity is an essential component of music found in all cultures. It is also a …
