auditory neuroscienceFeaturedNeuroscience·June 23, 2020The human brain tracks speech more closely in time than other soundsResearch suggests a time-locked encoding mechanism may have evolved for speech processing in humans. The processing mechanism appears to be tuned to the native language as a result of extensive exposure to the language environment during early development. Read More

AutismFeaturedNeuroscienceOpen Neuroscience Articles·September 18, 2019Brain imaging shows how nonverbal children with autism have slower response to soundsNonverbal children on the autism spectrum have a slower response to auditory stimulation. The longer response times were associated with poor communication skills. Brain imaging of the auditory cortex could serve as a biomarker for measuring the likelihood of language impairment in those with ASD. Read More
