The harmonic organization of auditory cortex
A fundamental structure of sounds encountered in the natural environment is the harmonicity. Harmonicity is an essential component of music found in all cultures. It is also a unique feature of vocal communication sounds such as human speech and animal vocalizations. Harmonics in sounds are produced by a variety of acoustic generators and reflectors in the natural environment, including vocal a...
متن کاملAnatomical organization of the auditory cortex.
The identification of areas that contribute to auditory processing in the human cerebral cortex has been the subject of sporadic investigation for more than one century. Several anatomical schemas have been advanced, but a standard model has not been adopted by researchers in the field. Most often, the results of functional imaging or electrophysiological studies involving auditory cortex are r...
متن کاملFunctional organization of ferret auditory cortex.
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 auditory field, AAF, are located on the middle ectosylvian gyrus. These areas exhibited a similar tonotopic organization, with high frequencies represented at the dorsal tip of the gyrus and low frequencie...
متن کاملTonotopic organization of human auditory cortex
The organization of tonotopic fields in human auditory cortex was investigated using functional magnetic resonance imaging. Subjects were presented with stochastically alternating multi-tone sequences in six different frequency bands, centered at 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, and 6400 Hz. Two mirror-symmetric frequency gradients were found extending along an anterior-posterior axis from a zone on ...

brous bands. In addition, some of these ‘layers’ in the avian Wulst and anterior DVR can be subdivided into narrower bands of cells that receive sensory-specific thalamic afferents . We emphasize this latter point because it was Karten’s pioneering work on the telencephalic projections of specific auditory and visual thalamic nuclei [Karten, 1968; Karten and Hodos, 1970] that underlies the data...
