Here we propose an alternative model of functional segregation in the auditory cortex. Our model agrees that the ventral pathway is probably involved in perceiving auditory objects by extracting ...
In a new study, researchers were able to see where in the brain, and how quickly -- in milliseconds -- the brain's neurons transition from processing the sound of speech to processing the ...
Recent advances in machine learning have shown that deep neural networks (DNNs) can provide powerful and flexible models of neural sensory processing. In the auditory system, standard linear-nonlinear ...
The cortex refers to the outermost layer of the cerebral hemispheres or cerebrum. The cerebral cortex in humans is folded into gyri and consists of six horizontal layers of neurons, with distinct ...
BISC is an ultra-thin neural implant that creates a high-bandwidth wireless link between the brain and computers. Its tiny single-chip design packs tens of thousands of electrodes and supports ...
In 2016 and '17, 25 Americans, including CIA agents, who worked in the U.S. Embassy in Cuba suffered serious brain injuries causing impaired vision and memory loss among other persistent symptoms. Now ...
Neurodegenerative disease profoundly affects structures and pathways responsible for memory, cognition, and higher-order ...
