Bats adapt to hearing loss using innate brain circuits, residual hearing, and other sensory pathways. They adjust ...

New research by Johns Hopkins neuroscientists reveals instant compensation strategy that other animals might share ...

Located on the surface of the temporal lobes, the primary auditory cortex of each hemisphere processes input from the opposite ear. Cranial nerves, however, communicate with both hemispheres.

Here we propose an alternative model of functional segregation in the auditory cortex. Our model agrees that the ventral pathway is probably involved in perceiving auditory objects by extracting ...

Johns Hopkins researchers found that bats adapt to hearing loss using innate neural strategies, such as increasing ...

Researchers have developed a non-invasive method for mapping the human auditory pathway, which could potentially be used as a tool to help clinicians decide the best surgical strategy for patients ...

Abnormal asymmetry in the frontal and temporal areas. Dysfunctional, underdeveloped or overdeveloped connections between auditory and motor regions in the brain. Music making and intensive musical ...

In particular, a number of anatomical pathways that connect auditory and motor brain regions (e.g., the arcuate fasciculus, the uncinate fasciculus and the extreme capsule) may be altered in ...
