Researchers have developed a non-invasive method for mapping the human auditory pathway, which could potentially be used as a tool to help clinicians decide the best surgical strategy for patients ...

Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a common feature in the postasphyxial syndrome in newborns. Several anesthetic drugs have been proposed to attenuate secondary neuronal injury elicited by ...

Neuroscientists at TU Dresden were able to prove that speech recognition in humans begins in the sensory pathways from the ear to the cerebral cortex and not, as previously assumed, exclusively in the ...

Hernández-Peón, Scherrer and Jouvet 1 have reported marked decrements in the amplitude of click-evoked responses in the cochlear nucleus in cats attending to stimuli of other sensory modalities. It ...

Physiological recordings in animals, including humans, have been consistent with two pathways in auditory regions, but conclusive evidence was lacking. Now, researchers have separated the "what" and ...

The human language pathway in the brain has been identified by scientists as being at least 25 million years old -- 20 million years older than previously thought. Scientists have discovered an ...

Researchers have shed new light on the language pathway in the human brain, suggesting that its origins lie around 25 million years ago—twenty million years earlier than previously thought. Brain ...
