Researchers report the dizzying effect experienced by those who suffer from Tullio phenomena occurs when sound generates pathological fluid mechanical waves in the semicircular canals of the ear.
Researchers challenge the theories of how people localize sound and explain why neural responses to sound are so diverse.
Researchers have developed a new way of processing signals in cochlear implants to help users hear music better.
Harsh noises, such as alarm bells and sirens, hold the brain's attention by stimulating its aversion networks.
A new study reports on bow certain brain cells compute the length of sounds and are able to detect shorter noises.
A new study could lead to better understanding of how brain processes are disrupted in patients with aphasia.
A new study uses real time MRI data to observe the vocal tracts of beatboxers before they produce a sound to see if the movements are different from speech.
A new study documents the transformation of information in a the auditory system of rats.
A new study reveals the neural processes we use to ignore the sound of our own footsteps and other self made noises. Researchers say the findings may shed new light on how we learn to speak and play music.
A new technology known as sonogenetics can control neural activity by using sound frequencies. The technology could be used to non-invasively treat a range of neurological conditions, including Parkinson's disease and epilepsy.
