Recent electrophysiological investigations of the auditory system in primates along with
functional neuroimaging studies of auditory perception in humans have suggested there are …

Structural asymmetries in the supratemporal plane of the human brain are often cited as the
anatomical basis for the lateralization of language predominantly to the left hemisphere …

The auditory tracts in the human brain connect the inferior colliculus (IC) and medial
geniculate body (MGB) to various components of the auditory cortex (AC). While in non …

The functional specialization and hierarchical organization of multiple areas in rhesus
monkey auditory cortex were examined with various types of complex sounds. Neurons in …

It is well established that in the majority of the population language processing is lateralized
to the left hemisphere. Evidence suggests that lateralization is also present in the brainstem …

Human primary auditory cortex (PAC) is functionally organized in a tonotopic manner. Past
studies have used neuroimaging to characterize tonotopic organization in PAC and found …

In the present review, we summarize the most recent findings and current views about the
structural and functional basis of human brain lateralization in the auditory modality. Main …

Work on the functional organization of auditory cortex in nonhuman primates has recently
gained increasing attention. Neurophysiological studies using complex stimuli, combined …

Recent anatomical and electrophysiological evidence in primates indicates the presence of
direct connections between primary auditory and primary visual cortex that constitute cross …

To investigate the role of temporal processing in language lateralization, we monitored
asymmetry of cerebral activation in human volunteers using positron emission tomography …
