Cognitive neuroscience has seen rapid growth in the size and complexity of data recorded
from the human brain as well as in the computational tools available to analyze this data …

Purpose Speech-evoked neurophysiological responses are often collected to answer
clinically and theoretically driven questions concerning speech and language processing …

Humans comprehend speech despite the various challenges such as mispronunciation and
noisy environments. Our auditory system is robust to these thanks to the integration of the …

Acquiring a new language requires individuals to simultaneously and gradually learn
linguistic attributes on multiple levels. Here, we investigated how this learning process …

Creating invariant representations from an everchanging speech signal is a major challenge
for the human brain. Such an ability is particularly crucial for preverbal infants who must …

In many experiments that investigate auditory and speech processing in the brain using
electroencephalography (EEG), the experimental paradigm is often lengthy and tedious …

Speech is processed less efficiently from discontinuous, mixed talkers than one consistent
talker, but little is known about the neural mechanisms for processing talker variability. Here …

The human auditory cortex simultaneously processes speech and determines the location of
a speaker in space. Neuroimaging studies in humans have implicated core auditory areas in …

Adults can learn to identify nonnative speech sounds with training, albeit with substantial
variability in learning behavior. Increases in behavioral accuracy are associated with …

During early development, the infant brain is highly plastic and sensory experiences
modulate emerging cortical maps, enhancing processing efficiency as infants set up key …
