Fine frequency tuning in monkey auditory cortex and thalamus.
The frequency resolution of neurons throughout the ascending auditory pathway is important for understanding how sounds are processed. In many animal studies, the frequency tuning widths are about 1/5th octave wide in auditory nerve fibers and much wider in auditory cortex neurons. Psychophysical studies show that humans are capable of discriminating far finer frequency differences. A recent st...
متن کاملTuning in to sound: frequency-selective attentional filter in human primary auditory cortex.
Cocktail parties, busy streets, and other noisy environments pose a difficult challenge to the auditory system: how to focus attention on selected sounds while ignoring others? Neurons of primary auditory cortex, many of which are sharply tuned to sound frequency, could help solve this problem by filtering selected sound information based on frequency-content. To investigate whether this occurs...
متن کاملTitle: Fine Frequency Tuning in Monkey Auditory Cortex and Thalamus
23 The frequency resolution of auditory neurons throughout the ascending auditory pathway 24 is an important parameter for understanding how sounds are processed. It has been shown in 25 previous animal studies that the frequency tuning widths are about 1/5 octave wide in auditory 26 nerve fibers and much wider in auditory cortex neurons (Pickles, 1979; McLaughlin et al., 2008; 27 see Table 1)....
متن کاملAttention improves population-level frequency tuning in human auditory cortex.
Attention improves auditory performance in noisy environments by either enhancing the processing of task-relevant stimuli ("gain"), suppressing task-irrelevant information ("sharpening"), or both. In the present study, we investigated the effect of focused auditory attention on the population-level frequency tuning in human auditory cortex by means of magnetoencephalography. Using complex stimu...
متن کاملNull Mutations in EphB Receptors Decrease Sharpness of Frequency Tuning in Primary Auditory Cortex
Primary auditory cortex (A1) exhibits a tonotopic representation of characteristic frequency (CF). The receptive field properties of A1 neurons emerge from a combination of thalamic inputs and intracortical connections. However, the mechanisms that guide growth of these inputs during development and shape receptive field properties remain largely unknown. We previously showed that Eph family pr...
