The current review constitutes the first comprehensive look at the possibility that the
mismatch negativity (MMN, the deflection of the auditory ERP/ERF elicited by stimulus …

Auditory processing in the cerebral cortex is comprised of an interconnected network of
auditory and auditory-related areas distributed throughout the forebrain. The nexus of …

The use of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to explore central auditory function
may be compromised by the intense bursts of stray acoustic noise produced by the scanner …

Understanding the functional organization of the human primary auditory cortex (PAC) is an
essential step in elucidating the neural mechanisms underlying the perception of sound …

Modules of neurons sharing a common property are a basic organizational feature of
mammalian sensory cortex. Primary visual cortex (V1) is characterized by orientation …

The mouse is a promising model system for auditory cortex research because of the
powerful genetic tools available for manipulating its neural circuitry. Previous studies have …

Are visual and auditory stimuli processed by similar mechanisms in the human cerebral
cortex? Images can be thought of as light energy modulations over two spatial dimensions …

The core region of primate auditory cortex contains a primary and two primary-like fields (AI,
primary auditory cortex; R, rostral field; RT, rostrotemporal field). Although it is reasonable to …

Listening is an active process in which attentive focus on salient acoustic features in auditory
tasks can influence receptive field properties of cortical neurons. Recent studies showing …

We characterized the functional organization of different fields within the auditory cortex of
anaesthetized ferrets. As previously reported, the primary auditory cortex, A1, and the …
