Listening to sound doesn t just trigger brain activity it reshapes your brain s internal networks in real time. Scientists have unveiled a powerful new imaging method, FREQ-NESS, that traces how ...

A research team has uncovered a fundamental principle of how the brain prioritizes vision and hearing differently depending on whether we are still or in motion. The study provides new insights into ...

Two new studies published in the journals Neuron00792-5) and Naturereveal how the human brain transforms a continuous stream of sound into distinct words. The findings identify a specific neural ...

Scientists have yet to answer the age-old question of whether or how sound shapes the minds of fetuses in the womb, and expectant mothers often wonder about the benefits of such activities as playing ...

Let's start off with the definition of sound. Sound is the vibrations of air that stimulate the ear to produce a signal in your brain. And it's these reconstructed vibrations—transformed into neural ...

(A) Mice are trained to respond to external audiovisual cues by making decisions to receive a water reward while avoiding a mild air puff. When both auditory and visual stimuli are presented together, ...

Dr. Mattia Rosso and Associate Professor Leonardo Bonetti from Center for Music in the Brain at Aarhus University are behind new research showing that the brain doesn’t just register sound – it ...
