While advances in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) throughout the last decades have
enabled the detailed anatomical and functional inspection of the human brain non …

Since the early days of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), retinotopic mapping
emerged as a powerful and widely-accepted tool, allowing the identification of individual …

This fully updated and revised sixth edition of Hearing: An Introduction to Psychological and
Physiological Acoustics provides a comprehensive introduction for graduate students and …

The primary auditory cortex (PAC) is central to human auditory abilities, yet its location in the
brain remains unclear. We measured the two largest tonotopic subfields of PAC (hA1 and …

The organization of tonotopic fields in human auditory cortex was investigated using
functional magnetic resonance imaging. Subjects were presented with stochastically …

In contrast to vision, where retinotopic mapping alone can define areal borders, primary
auditory areas such as A1 are best delineated by combining in vivo tonotopic mapping with …

Auditory cortical processing of complex meaningful sounds entails the transformation of
sensory (tonotopic) representations of incoming acoustic waveforms into higher-level sound …

Pitch is a defining perceptual property of many real-world sounds, including music and
speech. Classically, theories of pitch perception have differentiated between temporal and …

The pathophysiology underlying tinnitus, a hearing disorder characterized by the chronic
perception of phantom sound, has been related to aberrant plastic reorganization of the …

Music and speech are two of the most relevant and common sounds in the human
environment. Perceiving and processing these two complex acoustical signals rely on a …
