Using fMRI data collected from people viewing film clips, MIT neuroscientists created a comprehensive map of the cerebral ...

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 ...

Therefore, we developed a small, repositionable cooling probe to manipulate corticofugal feedback and studied neural responses in both auditory cortex and thalamus to sounds under conditions of normal ...

This well-designed study provides important findings concerning the way the brain encodes prediction about self-generated sensory inputs. The authors report that neurons in auditory cortex respond to ...

The manuscript presents a short report investigating mismatch responses in the auditory cortex, following previous studies focused on visual cortex. By correlating mouse locomotion speed with acoustic ...

A new study shows that the cerebral cortex predicts the future by detecting novel stimuli and forming short-term memory ...

Stress doesn’t just affect emotions — it changes how we perceive the world. A study found that mice exposed to a week of ...

Layer 4 (L4) of primary auditory cortex (A1) receives a tonotopically organized projection from the medial geniculate nucleus of the thalamus. However, individual neurons in A1 respond to a wider ...

In the quest for optimal auditory and cognitive health, many are turning to innovative supplements like ZenCortex. As we ...

For example, the intensity of surrounding sounds or odors may appear stronger to an individual experiencing stress. In the ...

The stimuli in the experiment were sounds played at different pitches. After imaging the auditory cortex of mice, a part of the cerebral cortex that processes sound, they found that groups of neurons ...
