The final formatted version of "The Hearing Hippocampus" is now available (open access) in Progress in Neurobiology: doi.org/10.1016/j.pneurobio.… . This is work with @BrainLad, Will Sedley, Tim Griffiths @UCLEarInstitute @AuditoryGroup @NewcastleMedSch #hippocampus #sound (1/9)
New EEG paper from our group on neural responses to speech-in-noise and figure-ground perception.
An easy EEG set-up to record ERPs to figure-ground segregation even during passive listening opens the door to clinical applications. doi.org/10.1016/j.heares.202…
Can being musical increase your ability to hold sounds in memory?

#Newpaper "Representation of time windows in primate auditory cortex" in Cerebral Cortex
dx.doi.org/10.1093/cercor/bh…
We compare the anatomical organization of time window processing in macaques & humans. Are human brains specialised to process speech?
