Frequency Specific Modulation of Human Somatosensory Cortex
Oscillatory neuronal activities are commonly observed in response to sensory stimulation. However, their functional roles are still the subject of debate. One-way to probe the roles of oscillatory neural activities is to deliver alternating current to the cortex at biologically relevant frequencies and examine whether such stimulation influences perception and cognition. In this study, we teste...
متن کاملFrequency-Selective Attention in Auditory Scenes Recruits Frequency Representations Throughout Human Superior Temporal Cortex.
A sound of interest may be tracked amid other salient sounds by focusing attention on its characteristic features including its frequency. Functional magnetic resonance imaging findings have indicated that frequency representations in human primary auditory cortex (AC) contribute to this feat. However, attentional modulations were examined at relatively low spatial and spectral resolutions, and...
متن کاملSeparate finger representations at the human second somatosensory cortex.
We recorded neuromagnetic responses of the second somatosensory cortex in healthy humans. Cutaneous electrical stimulation of fingers elicited a response around 100 ms, with a field pattern agreeing with activation of the second somatosensory cortex in the upper bank of the Sylvian fissure. In an oddball paradigm, with standards presented to the thumb and deviants (10%) to the middle finger, or...
متن کاملNeuronal representations of distance in human auditory cortex.
Neuronal mechanisms of auditory distance perception are poorly understood, largely because contributions of intensity and distance processing are difficult to differentiate. Typically, the received intensity increases when sound sources approach us. However, we can also distinguish between soft-but-nearby and loud-but-distant sounds, indicating that distance processing can also be based on inte...
متن کاملAuditory spatial attention representations in the human cerebral cortex.
Auditory spatial attention serves important functions in auditory source separation and selection. Although auditory spatial attention mechanisms have been generally investigated, the neural substrates encoding spatial information acted on by attention have not been identified in the human neocortex. We performed functional magnetic resonance imaging experiments to identify cortical regions tha...
