The fundamental perceptual unit in hearing is the 'auditory object'. Similar to visual objects,
auditory objects are the computational result of the auditory system's capacity to detect, …

Crossmodal integration is a term applicable to many phenomena in which one sensory
modality influences task performance or perception in another sensory modality. We distinguish …

Recent studies, conducted almost exclusively in primates, have shown that several cortical
areas usually associated with modality-specific sensory processing are subject to influences …

Because we can perceive the pitch, timbre, and spatial location of a sound source
independently, it seems natural to suppose that cortical processing of sounds might separate out …

We characterized the functional organization of different fields within the auditory cortex of
anaesthetized ferrets. As previously reported, the primary auditory cortex, A1, and the anterior …

… (I and J) Population mean ITPC values across frequency for temporally independent
stimuli (I, awake dataset, significant frequencies 10.5–22 Hz; J, anesthetized dataset, no …

Descending corticofugal projections are thought to play a critical role in shaping the
responses of subcortical neurons. Here, we examine the origins and targets of ferret auditory …

We can recognize the melody of a familiar song when it is played on different musical instruments.
Similarly, an animal must be able to recognize a warning call whether the caller has a …

Neurons responsive to visual stimulation have now been described in the auditory cortex of
various species, but their functions are largely unknown. Here we investigate the auditory …
