Researchers from the HSE Center for Language and Brain have identified previously unknown age-related changes in brain activity during the perception of auditory information in a group of children ...

Despite its ubiquitous use in medicine, and extensive knowledge of its molecular and cellular effects, how anesthesia induces loss of consciousness (LOC) and affects sensory processing remains poorly ...

A low-dimensional voice latent space derived from deep learning captures speaker-identity representations in the temporal voice areas and supports reconstruction of voices preserving identity ...

Human brains do something peculiar when a chimpanzee screams or hoots. Instead of treating those sounds as generic animal ...

The term misophonia may not be well-known to the masses; however, it is understood by those who have it. Misophonia is a strong emotional and/or physiological response to specific sounds. The ...
