The auditory frequency-following response (FFR) is a non-invasive index of the fidelity of
sound encoding in the brain, and is used to study the integrity, plasticity, and behavioral …

Speech processing in the human brain is grounded in non-specific auditory processing in
the general mammalian brain, but relies on human-specific adaptations for processing …

The frequency-following response, or FFR, is a neurophysiological response to sound that
precisely reflects the ongoing dynamics of sound. It can be used to study the integrity and …

Even though human experience unfolds continuously in time, it is not strictly linear; instead,
it entails cascading processes building hierarchical cognitive structures. For instance, during …

Selective attention to one of several competing speakers is required for comprehending a
target speaker among other voices and for successful communication with them. It moreover …

When we grow older, understanding speech in noise becomes more challenging. Research
has demonstrated the role of auditory temporal and cognitive deficits in these age-related …

Elevated hearing thresholds in hearing impaired adults are usually compensated by
providing amplification through a hearing aid. In spite of restoring hearing sensitivity …

How do we attend to relevant auditory information in complex naturalistic scenes? Much
research has focused on detecting which information is attended, without regarding …

Objective. Smart hearing aids which can decode the focus of a user's attention could
considerably improve comprehension levels in noisy environments. Methods for decoding …

When a person listens to sound, the brain time-locks to specific aspects of the sound. This is
called neural tracking and it can be investigated by analysing neural responses (eg …
